About this map

The Salt River winds through the southern reaches of this landscape, defining the low-lying geography near Glensboro and Anderson City. This 2013 survey illustrates a rural corridor where narrow ridges like Pleasant Grove Ridge and Cat Ridge overlook a network of creek drainages, including Crooked Cr, Beech Cr, and Benson Cr. The distribution of small settlements such as Avenstoke, Harrisonville, and Birdie suggests a long-standing pattern of upland farming and cross-road communities.

Genealogists will find several family-named and local burial sites preserved on the map, including Beech Creek Cem, Carpenter Cem, and Corinth Church Cem. The terrain is punctuated by secluded features like Mudlick Hollow and Rattlesnake Br, while aviation is represented by Miles Field Airport in the northwest. This detailed topography offers a clear look at the road network connecting historically significant locales such as Gee, Wayside, and Junte.
