2016 Map of Dyer

About this map

Dyer and the surrounding Gibson County landscape are defined by the winding course of the Rutherford Fork Obion River and a dense network of country roads. This 2016 survey shows a region rich in family and community history, evidenced by the numerous small burial grounds and rural settlements scattered across the agricultural terrain. Places like Grizzard, Barrons Corner, and Laneview serve as local landmarks alongside more prominent towns. Genealogists will find the map particularly useful for locating smaller sites such as Bucksnort Cem, Bobbitt Cem, and Mount Sinai Cem Cotham Rd. The southern portion of the map transitions toward the N Fork Forked Deer River, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of West Tennessee. The persistence of names like Good Luck and Griers Chapel Cem reflects the long-standing community identity of this rural corridor.
