2010 Map of Macon

About this map

Macon Post Office serves as a focal point for this rural Tennessee landscape, characterized by an extensive network of family-named cemeteries and small watercourses. The terrain is defined by the drainages of Shaws Creek, Bluff Creek, and Cypress Creek, which have shaped the settlement patterns and road placements over generations. Genealogy researchers will find a high density of burial sites, including Sardis Cemetery, Tharp Cemetery, and Macon Cemetery, often located near crossroads or along older routes like Mosby Rd. In the north, Glengary Lake and its accompanying dam represent mid-century water management, while the Fayette County Airport and the development at Double W Ranch signify more recent land use changes in the area surrounding Oakland. This 2010 survey provides a clear view of the transition between long-established agricultural plots and modern local infrastructure.
