2022 Map of Adair

About this map

The South Fork Forked Deer River dominates the southern landscape of this West Tennessee quadrangle, winding through a wide floodplain where Meriweather Br, Cub Cr, and Johnson Creek converge. This area, located northwest of Jackson, is defined by its small crossroads settlements and a high density of family burial grounds that reflect generations of rural life. Communities such as Adair, Windy City, and Gum Flat are linked by a network of established country roads, including Old Stage Rd and Old Humboldt Rd. The cultural history of the region is anchored by institutions like the Bascom Christian Methodist Episcopal Church and the Harris Grove Church. Genealogists will find a wealth of local data in the numerous small cemeteries, such as the Randolph Family Cem, McClellan Cem, and the Hart - Dickins Cem, which sit tucked away near tributary streams like Adair Br and Pearsons Cr.
