About this map

The crossroads of Marianna and Galena anchor this portion of Marshall County, where the landscape is defined by the intricate dendritic drainage of Pigeon Roost Creek and Cuffawa Cr. The survey reveals a rural territory structured by historic land divisions, marked by numerous family and community burial grounds such as Marvel Cem, Nunnally Cem, and Smith Grove Cem. These sites, often positioned on high ground between creek branches like Jones Cr and Dry Fork Cr, provide significant markers for genealogical research.

Transportation patterns follow the ridges, with Old Hwy 4 W cutting diagonally across the terrain towards the southeast. Smaller local routes, including Yarbrough Chapel RD and Wilkins Chapel RD, connect disparate homesteads to the primary settlements. The presence of several distinct cemetery labels, including Chulahoma Cem and the Mount Gillie Cem, suggests a long-established rural population density that persists alongside the natural waterways of Nunnolly Creek and Wilkins Cr.
