Black Cat, Kentucky

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I cannot fathom what this possibly is, but if fails WP:GEOLAND and WP:GNG. This place is not mentioned in Rennick's county listing, or his index. Rennick's annotated topographic map has "Black Cat N" written at one point, but it is unclear what exactly that is supposed to mean. I'm finding no meaningful newspapers.com references that seem to be about a community, it's all about literal cats, a high school mascot in nearby Hickman County, and a type of coal. This Google Books result mentions a Black Cat in connection with the McCracken County jail, but it's apparently part of the jail, which further research suggests is in Paducah. Nothing I can find indicates what in the world this possibly is/was, so I say it's safe to say that notability guidelines are not met. Hog Farm Bacon 04:37, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete The Symsonia 1:24,000 USGS topographic maps for different years lack any indication for its existence as a settlement or neighbourhood. At the USGS Historic Topographic Map Viewer, I found that the 1938, 1951, 1982, and 2010 Symsonia 1:24,000 USGS topographic maps lack any indication of a settlement at the location given for Black Cat, Kentucky. The road associated with this location is marked as "Black Cat" in Google maps. However, the 2010 Symsonia 1:24,000 USGS topographic map shows the name of the same road to be "By-Pass Road." Paul H.

 * Delete I am not able to find any RS to establish that this place exists, no GHITS. Deathlibrarian (talk) 10:22, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
