About this map

Fanchers Mills and the high elevations of Gum Spring Mtn High Knob define this portion of White County, where small agricultural communities are linked by historic roadways like the Old Smithville Hwy S and Roberts Matthews Hwy. The landscape is characterized by its numerous coves and hollows, including Walker Cove, Carrick Cove, and Cane Hollow, which have dictated the placement of long-standing family settlements and local landmarks.

Genealogical interest is particularly high due to the density of burial sites across the township, such as Mount Gilead Cem, Philadelphia Cem, and Shady Grove Cem. Water features like Darkey Spring Br and the distinctive Boiling Pond illustrate the local hydrology. Small centers like Yateston, Darkey Springs, and Old Zion serve as focal points for a rural road network that includes numerous named lanes and loops, many preserving local family names.
