About this map

Henry serves as the central hub of this West Tennessee landscape, where a dense network of country roads like Old State Hwy 76 and Macedonia Rd connects scattered farmsteads and family landholdings. The map reveals a remarkable concentration of burial sites, including the New Bethel Cemetery, Brogdon Cemetery, and the Bird-Miller Cemetery, which offer significant value for genealogists tracing regional family lineages.

Water management is a defining characteristic of the terrain, visible through the extensive engineering of the Middle Fork Obion River Number Nine Lake and the channelization of Neil Ditch. These features, alongside natural waterways like Caledonia Creek and Spring Creek, illustrate the complex drainage patterns of the Obion River basin. Landmarks such as the Perry School House Loop hint at former centers of rural education and community life that once anchored this agricultural district.
