2012 Map of Emory North

About this map

Lake Fork Creek and its many tributaries, including Buckeye Branch and Turkey Creek, define the rural landscape north of the Rains County seat. Small settlements and crossroads like Richland, Dougherty, and Prospect are scattered across this terrain, connected by a dense network of farm-to-market roads and county lanes. The area is particularly rich in family-named landmarks and burial sites, which offer significant value for genealogical research. Prominent sites such as the Richland-Benton Hill Cemetery, Hill Pippin Cemetery, and Worcester-Cooper Cemetery are documented alongside local infrastructure like the Bucker Field Airport near Point. The map captures a moment of modern rural life where established family plots and historic community names persist amidst the winding waterways of the Rains Branch and Moss Wash Branch.
