About this map

Parsons serves as the primary hub on this Decatur County landscape, where the town's western edge gives way to a complex network of landings and river bottoms. The Tennessee River dominates the eastern boundary, shaping local life through features like Brodies Landing, Clifts Landing, and the Mousetail Landing area. This 2010 survey illustrates the river's continued importance for transport and recreation, evidenced by the Perryville Marina and the Alvin C York Bridge crossing near Perryville Bottom.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high density of family-named landmarks and resting places, including Parrish Cemetery, Walker Cemetery, and Houston Cemetery. The terrain is marked by distinct hollows and bluffs, such as Lady Finger Bluff and Chalkbank Hollow, which direct the flow of numerous tributaries like Cub Creek and Lick Creek. These landforms and the Busseltown Dewatering Area reveal how the community manages the river's influence on the surrounding flats.
