About this map

Cornersville serves as the primary hub in this portion of Marshall County, situated along the upper reaches of Town Creek. The landscape is defined by a dense network of named hollows, such as Hatchett Hollow, Coosie Hollow, and Garrett Hollow, which channel various branches toward Richland Creek. This topography influenced a dispersed pattern of early settlement, evidenced by numerous small family and community burial grounds including New Hope Cemetery, Arthur Cemetery, and Horton Cemetery.

South of the main settlement, the land rises toward Horse Knob and Goshen Ridge, where the headwaters of Bradshaw Creek begin their descent. Infrastructure is largely tied to these natural drainages, with Lewis Lake Dam and McKinnon Dam managing local water resources. The area's spiritual and social history is anchored by landmarks like Beech Cliff Church, while old thoroughfares such as Old Ostella Rd and Delina Rd connect the isolated ridges and valley floors.
