About this map

The settlement of Woodburn serves as the focal point of this Simpson County landscape, situated where the terrain begins to slope toward the winding West Fork Drakes Creek. This 2010 survey illustrates a region defined by agricultural heritage and family-named landmarks, such as Arnemann Farms Airport and a dense network of rural corridors like Harvey Robertson Rd and Oscar Downey Rd. The mapping of several ford roads, including Saddler Ford Rd and Ditmore Ford Rd, reveals traditional crossing points across the local waterways that have likely dictated travel patterns for generations.

Further south, the community of Black Jack marks the lower reaches of the quadrangle near the meandering Sinking Creek. The presence of Old Zion Church Rd and Robey Cemetery Rd provides essential geographical context for genealogists tracing family roots through this corner of Kentucky. This map records the modern alignment of thoroughfares and small settlements before further suburban development or land-use changes altered the rural character of the area.
