2019 Map of Manchester

About this map

The city of Manchester serves as the focal point for this survey, situated at the confluence of the Little Duck River and several drainage creeks. The landscape is characterized by a mix of residential expansion, such as Melrose Park and Westwood Homes, and significant historical and federal landmarks. To the northwest, the Old Stone Fort stands near Granny Hickerson Cave, highlighting the area's ancient archaeological significance. Further south, the map documents a portion of the Arnold Air Force Base and the AEDC Retention Reservoir, reflecting the modern military presence in Coffee County. The terrain is notably aquatic, featuring numerous wetlands and ponds including Sinking Pond, Cow Pond, and Lemm Swamp, alongside notable natural springs like Goodman Spring. Local genealogy is well-represented through several family-named burial grounds, including Hickerson Cem and Huffar Cem.
