About this map

Greenfield and Sharon anchor this Weakley County landscape at a time when the region's agricultural character remained deeply connected to the river systems of West Tennessee. The Middle Fork Obion River meanders across the central portion of the map, fed by numerous tributaries such as Spring Creek and Wing Ditch, while the South Fork Obion River defines the southwestern corner. This hydrological network is punctuated by features like the Mud Creek-Watershed Lake Number Seventeen, illustrating the sophisticated water management of the modern era.

For genealogists and local historians, the map is remarkably dense with family-named landmarks and burial sites. From the northern reaches near Corinth Cemetery to the southern outskirts of Greenfield with the Rose Hill Cemetery and Patterson Cemetery, these locations provide essential data points for tracing local family roots. Rural community centers are still visible through sites like Brocks Chapel, while the road network, including Hwy 45 E and Kimery Store Rd, reflects a history of small-town commerce and connectivity.
