About this map

The confluence of the Obey River and the winding Cordell Hull Reservoir dominates this 2013 topographic study of Clay County. The county seat of Celina is the primary settlement, positioned where the river meets the reservoir and featuring the Henry Horton Bridge. The landscape is characterized by a series of high ridges and hollows, including Stephens Ridge and Harp Hollow, which have shaped local transportation and settlement patterns for generations. Small communities like Moss, Richville, and Arcott are connected by a network of rural roads that follow the natural topography of the land.

Evidence of local heritage is found in family-named landmarks and infrastructure, such as Mclerran Cemetery Rd and Knob Creek Bluff. The map also details river features like Shut in Shoals and Pine Branch Shoals, reflecting the area's history of navigation and river-based commerce. The reservoir creates significant shoreline features like Stones Bottom and Weaver Bottom, illustrating the balance between the managed waterway and the traditional agricultural bottomlands.
