About this map

Deeply dissected terrain along the border of Houston and Humphreys counties defines this landscape, where narrow valleys and hollows dictate the pattern of human settlement. The rural communities of Halls Creek and Trinity serve as local anchors, connected by a network of winding roads like Halls Creek Rd and Clydeton Rd. The map is particularly dense with small family and community burial grounds, including Concord Cem, Madden Cem, and the Collier Family Cem, providing a detailed spatial record for genealogical research in this portion of Middle Tennessee.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with Big Richland Creek and Whiteoak Creek carving the primary drainages that receive dozens of named hollows, such as Stillhouse Hollow and Schoolhouse Hollow. These names reflect the historical land use and early infrastructure of the area. Toward the south, the terrain begins to flatten as it approaches the outskirts of Waverly, showing the transition from the isolated ridges of Resin Ridge and Chestnut Ridge toward the more developed county seat.
