About this map

Georgetown and the rural crossroads of Japton and Asher anchor this Madison County landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of hollows and ridges. The drainage of Drakes Creek and Lollars Creek carves through the Ozark highlands, creating a topography that influenced early settlement patterns and the placement of several small family cemeteries. Genealogy researchers can find several burial grounds such as Duncan Cem, Eubanks McChristian Cem, and Ledbetter Cem scattered near the peaks of Eubanks Mtn and Ledbetter Mtn. The presence of the Lollars Creek Farm Airport near Asher highlights the intersection of modern utility with the region's traditional land use. This survey illustrates how contemporary road networks, like Co RD 6330, follow the ancient contours of the land, connecting landmarks such as Parker Hill and Jackson Knob while preserving the names of the families who originally worked these hills.
