About this map

The South Fork Forked Deer River winds through this Madison County landscape, defining the topography of an area shaped by numerous creek drainages and small family cemeteries. The rural settlement pattern is reflected in the high density of burial sites such as the Bethlehem Cemetery, McLemore Cemetery, and Matthews Cemetery, which often anchor local family histories.

Transport is dominated by Bells Hwy and Old Jackson Rd, which cut across a network of country lanes like Gum Flat Rd and Windy City Rd. The drainage network, including Adair Branch and Matthews Branch, illustrates the fertile but dissected nature of the terrain west of Jackson. This 2010 survey provides a clear look at the modern rural residential expansion that follows historical property lines and earlier pioneer routes.
