About this map

Kentucky Lake and the Tennessee River dominate this landscape, where the borders of Benton, Humphreys, Perry, and Decatur Counties meet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of hollows, such as Hellsneck Hollow and Opossum Hollow, which feed into major water bodies like Crooked Cr and Roan Cr. The riverfront at Daniels Landing and the small community of Blue Sky serve as primary points of orientation along the water's edge.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites throughout the ridge-and-valley topography, including Britts Chapel Cem, Davidson Cem, and Nix Cem. The mapping of small hills like Cotham Hill and Ward Hill alongside roads like Cuba Landing Rd illustrates the rural connectivity of the region, where family-named landmarks such as Lunn Hollow and Walker Hollow indicate generations of land use and local history.
