About this map

Hillman and Bradley anchor this rural Greene County landscape, where family settlements are interspersed with a complex network of creeks and timberlands. The topography is defined by a prominent elevated spine known simply as The Ridge, which separates the drainages of Big Oktibbe Creek and Brushy Creek. This modern survey reveals a persistent rural infrastructure, where local roads such as Tung Oil Road and Smith Dale Farm Road point toward the area's agricultural and silvicultural history.

Genealogists will find particular value in the locations of the Hillman Cemetery and Bradley Cemetery, which mark the centers of these longstanding communities. The map tracks the winding course of significant local waterways, including Big Creek and Kittrell Mill Creek, illustrating how the drainage patterns shaped the placement of early farms and the secondary road network in the southeastern corner of the state.
