The town of Cherokee and the settlement of Barton anchor the northern landscape of this quadrangle, situated along the corridor of Route 72. The area is characterized by a complex network of ridges and hollows, including Mountain Mills Ridge and Summer House Mountain, which give way to numerous winding waterways like Buzzard Roost Creek and McLemore Branch. This modern survey reveals a region with deep community roots, evidenced by the high density of small family and local burial grounds such as Atkisson Cem, McCollough Cem, and the unique Coon Dog Cem located in the south.
