About this map

The Edens-Madden Massacre Cemetery stands as a somber monument to local frontier history in this section of Houston County. Located near the northern boundary, it anchors a landscape defined by small rural settlements like Germany and Belott. The latter features the Belott Post Office, a rare specific structural label that indicates the community's role as a local crossroads.

Water dictates the geography here, with Hickory Creek and its many tributaries, including Black Branch and Flat Branch, draining the southern reaches. In the east, the terrain is marked by Pine Spring and the winding course of Gum Creek. Genealogical interest is particularly high on this sheet due to the naming of several family-linked burial sites, such as the Parker Cemetery, Grounds Cemetery, and the Fennell Memory Garden. Large tracts of forest are intersected by a network of Forest Service roads, including Forest Service Road 544, which weave through the timberlands between Austin Branch and Johnson Creek.
