About this map

Barry serves as the primary hub in this portion of Pike County, characterized by a detailed street grid including Tremont St and Grand Ave. The landscape transition from the higher northern ground down toward the Mississippi River floodplains is marked by several prominent drainage features like Hadley Cr and Kiser Cr. This area is particularly rich in genealogical data, preserving the locations of numerous rural burial sites such as Woodruff Cem and Stoney Point Cem.

Further south, the settlement of New Canton sits near the base of the bluffs, where the terrain levels out into the flats near the Shewhart-Gard Settling Basin. Distinctive natural landmarks like Weber Spring and the carved paths of Grubb Hollow and Whippoorwill-Hollow define the local topography, illustrating the complex network of ravines and springs that shaped early settlement patterns and road placements in the region.
