2013 Map of Glen Dean

About this map

Glen Dean and the surrounding rural landscape of Breckinridge County are defined by a network of winding creeks and family-named landmarks. This 2013 survey illustrates a region where life follows the drainage patterns of Clover Cr and Daniels Cr, with small settlements like McQuady and Tar Fork serving as local hubs. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations such as Egypt Knob, Cretcheloe Hill, and Black Jack Knob, which dictate the paths of secondary roads like St Marys Church Rd and Old Axtel-Glen Dean Rd. Genealogists and local historians can find significant markers of the area's heritage, including the Owens Cem and several former school sites indicated by road names like Jackson School. The map shows a transition from the higher knobs down to the stream valleys, preserving the locations of smaller points such as Vanzant, Rockvale, and Dempster amidst the enduring agricultural landscape.
