About this map

Bonnertown sits along the Tennessee Alabama state line, serving as a hub for a landscape defined by small rural settlements and a dense network of family-name roads. This modern survey reveals a community anchored by its spiritual and ancestral sites, from the Center Point Baptist Church Cem in the north to Cottrell Cem near the southern border. The terrain is deeply incised by numerous waterways such as Second Cr and W Fork Sugar Cr, which dictate the placement of communities like Bird Mill, Idaho, and Ramah.

The distribution of local landmarks like Richardson Ponds and Five Points reflects a long-standing agricultural pattern. For genealogists, the map provides precise locations for scattered burial grounds including Lindsey Cem and Gibbins Cem. The area around Upper Mockeson and Lower Mockeson showcases the traditional upland settlement style of Lawrence County, where homes and farms follow the winding ridgelines of features like Steadman Ridge.
