About this map

Centerville and Wood anchor this rural landscape in Franklin County, where the network of country roads reveals a long history of family-named settlements and landholdings. The map is defined by its numerous waterway crossings, including Shocco Bridge, Boling Bridge, Bass Bridge, and Arrington Bridge, which reflect the historical importance of bridging the area's many creeks and branches.

Narrow drainages like Maple Br and Shelley Br feed into larger systems such as Fishing Cr and Shocco Cr, while the expansive White Oak Swamp dominates the southeastern quadrant. The presence of routes like Red Bud Church Rd, Wood Church Rd, and Collins Mill Rd provides local historians and genealogists with clues to the locations of former community centers and industry that once thrived along these water-rich corridors.
