2010 Map of Covington

About this map

Covington serves as the focal point of this western Tennessee landscape, where the town's street grid expands outward from the Covington Post Office toward agricultural surroundings. The map reveals a densely recorded history through its many burial grounds, including the Mount Lebanon Cemetery, Shiloh Cemetery, and Walton Cemetery. These sites, along with smaller family or church plots like Avery Cemetery and Leighs Chapel Cemetery, offer significant points of interest for genealogical research. The drainage pattern of the region is defined by Mathis Creek and Town Creek, which meander through the terrain alongside water features like Tatlock Lake and the Indian Creek Canal. Transportation is represented by a network of rural roads such as Roughedge Rd and Millstone Mountain Rd, while Cates Airport and Jones Dam mark the modern and modified character of the Tipton County landscape.
