2022 Map of Williamstown

About this map

Williamstown and Dry Ridge serve as the primary hubs of this North Central Kentucky landscape, situated along the high ground between the deep-cut valleys of Arnolds Creek and S-Fork Grassy Cr. The area is characterized by its numerous family and community cemeteries, such as Hill Crest Cem, Dey Cem, and Renneckar Cem, which are scattered throughout the ridge-and-hollow terrain. The development pattern follows the contours of Humes Ridge and Fairview Ridge, with modern infrastructure like the Grant County Judicial Center and Charlie-Bravos Airport existing alongside older rural settlements like Northcutt and Knoxville. The drainage network, including Pointer Run and Ten Mile Cr, flows through a complex topography that has historically defined the boundaries between Grant Co and Pendleton Co. This modern survey documents the persistence of these rural communities and their reliance on the established road networks that traverse the difficult elevation changes of the Bluegrass region.
