2019 Map of Hurricane Mills

About this map

Hurricane Mills serves as a central landmark in this portion of Humphreys County, situated where Hurricane Creek flows toward the Duck River. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of the Duck and Buffalo River, which carve through numerous named bottoms and hollows such as Cherry Bottom, Squeeze Bottom, and Voorhies Hollow. Small settlements and family clusters like Cedar Grove, Bakerville, and Caigletown are connected by a network of local routes, including Old State Hwy 13. The area is notably dense with small family burial grounds, including the O'Donnilley Cem, Shannon Cem, and Wright Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research. River features like The Whirl and Whirl Bar indicate the complex hydrology that influenced early settlement and transport patterns in this Tennessee river valley.
