About this map

Perry occupies the southern edge of this Taylor County landscape, where the local street grid meets a network of rural roads and timbered corridors. North of the town center, the small settlement of Boyd is situated near the upper reaches of Rocky Creek. The area is defined by its subtle drainage patterns, with several named waterways like Woods Creek, Pimple Creek, and Spring Creek meandering through the terrain.

Genealogists and local historians will find several significant landmarks, including the Shiloh Cemetery and the airstrip at Lumar Field. Numerous family-named roads, such as W Lyman Hendry Rd, Joel Aman Rd, and Jimmy Archer Rd, trace the residential and agricultural development of the region. The transition from the more developed blocks of Perry to the outlying rural tracts reveals the spatial relationship between the county seat and the smaller neighboring communities during this era.
