1993 Map of Farmington

About this map

Farmington and Sedalia anchor this portion of Graves County, where the landscape is defined by the Tennessee Valley Divide and an intricate network of waterways including Mayfield Creek and Little Mayfield Creek. The map reveals a rural economy shaped by both land and water, noted by the presence of a Woolen Mill and a Fish Farm. Genealogists will find significant detail in the numerous family-named burial grounds like Bean Cem, Torian Cem, and Swann Cem that dot the countryside. The northern edge shows the Corporate Mayfield boundary, signaling the reach of the county seat into the surrounding farmland. This edition synthesizes mid-century survey data with updated imagery to show the evolution of regional infrastructure, such as the Communication Tower and Mobile Home Park, amidst a landscape that remained fundamentally agricultural into the late twentieth century.
