About this map

Faubush and the surrounding highlands of western Pulaski County are defined by a complex network of ridges and hollows that drop toward the waters of Faubush Creek. The landscape is dotted with small settlements like Norfleet, Naomi, and Burnetta, which serve as anchors for a rural community deeply connected to the land. This 2022 survey illustrates the enduring nature of local family histories through its numerous burial grounds, including the Floyd Family Cemetery and Cedar Point Cemetery.

Transport through the area follows the natural topography, with roads like Bobtown Road and Piney Grove Road tracing the spines of Newhope Ridge and Piney Grove Ridge. The terrain transitions from the high points of Siever Knob and Rainwater Knob down into narrow drainages such as Graveyard Hollow and Whittle Hollow. The map also captures the boundary line between Pulaski County and Russell County, showing how these political divisions intersect with the physical geography of the Wolf Creek drainage.
