2013 Map of Beans Creek

About this map

Maxwell and Walnut Grove serve as the primary hubs in this portion of Franklin County, situated near the intersection of various local routes like Syler Rd and Murray Rd. The landscape is defined by its complex network of hollows and ridges, which transition from agricultural fields in the western flats to the more varied terrain of the east. Family-named landmarks such as Gugelman Hollow, Ransom Hollow, and Cynthia Hollow illustrate the long-standing community ties to the land, while prominent features like Anderson Bluff and Bradford Mountain rise above the drainage systems of Beans Creek and Dry Creek. Water sources are plentiful throughout the area, including Spout Spring, Dripping Spring, and Hickory Mill Spring, suggesting a landscape where local industry and agriculture were once closely tied to reliable natural springs.
