2012 Map of Beatrice

About this map

Beatrice and Dantzler define the rural character of this Jackson County landscape, where the traditional transport network of Wire Rd E meets a complex system of local drainage. The map reveals a heavily wooded interior dissected by numerous branches and creeks, including Tuxachanie Cr and the multi-pronged Hurricane Cr. This 2012 survey illustrates the persistence of early family and community markers through the inclusion of the Broadus Cem, Ramsey Cem, and Walker Cem. A notable landmark, the University Lookout Tower, stands as a vertical focal point near the crossing of Little Red Cr. The inclusion of Old Ccc Rd and various forestry routes suggests a history of land management and infrastructure development that spans from the early 20th century into the modern era.
