About this map

The Kentucky River and its major tributary Eagle Creek define the geography of this North Central Kentucky landscape, where the borders of Carroll, Henry, and Owen counties meet. The settlement of Worthville serves as a focal point near the river confluence, supported by local landmarks like the Worthville Masonic Cem. Moving south along the winding river valley, the terrain transitions toward Port Royal and the mineral spring history of Drennon Springs.

Genealogists and local historians can trace family roots through sites like the Pleasant Union Methodist Church and its accompanying cemetery, as well as the Vance Cem. The map illustrates the persistent importance of early transportation routes, including the Springport Ferry Rd near Horseshoe Bend, reflecting a long history of river crossings and small farming communities like Moxley and Perry Park that have long relied on these waterways.
