The Cumberland River and Obey River converge at Celina, the Clay County seat, where the river-and-road geography of northern Tennessee meets the Kentucky state line. This survey details the complex terrain of the Highland Rim, characterized by deep hollows and high ridges like Owl Ridge and Stephens Ridge. Along the riverbanks, distinct features such as Stones Bottom, Weaver Bottom, and the Celina Bar highlight the importance of the alluvial flats. Transportation across the water is anchored by the Henry Horton Bridge, while river navigation is marked by natural hazards like Shut in Shoals and Pine Branch Shoals. Numerous family-named burial grounds, including Plumlee Cem, Meadows Cem, and Mabry Cem, are situated throughout the rural landscape, offering valuable location data for genealogists tracking early families in the Moss and Arcott areas.
