About this map

The eastern edges of Jackson transition into the rolling rural landscape of Madison County in this contemporary survey. The settlement of Claybrook stands as a focal point in the eastern portion of the map, situated near the headwaters of several drainages. The area is defined by an intricate network of small waterways, including Poplar Creek, Gilmers Creek, and Cotton Grove Creek, which carve through the terrain. These watercourses were historically significant for early settlement patterns in the region.

Genealogists and local historians can locate established landmarks such as Salem Cemetery and several small bodies of water like Duncan Lake, Blair Lake, and Fern Lake. The road network, including historic routes like Cotton Grove Road and Upper Browns Church Road, reflects the long-standing agricultural and community connections between the outlying rural districts and the growing urban center of Jackson.
