About this map

The Barbour County seat of Clayton serves as the focal point for this 2011 survey, showing the town's northern expansion and its civic infrastructure. The landscape is characterized by a network of rural routes and significant water features, including Pea Creek and Bronson Creek, which feeds into County Lake. The topography is defined by prominent elevations such as Kennedy Hill and Graveyard Hill, while the Clayton Municipal Airport and Clayton Post Office anchor the local transportation and communication networks.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the quadrangle, including the centrally located Clayton Cemetery, as well as Jacksonville Cemetery, Blair Cemetery, and Mount Olive Cemetery. These sites are linked by historical corridors like Gulledge Mill Rd and Williams Millpond Rd, names that hint at the area's agricultural and industrial past. The presence of the Kennedy Lookout Tower further emphasizes the region's managed woodlands and fire prevention history.
