About this map

Marietta sits at the southern edge of this Prentiss County landscape, where the headwaters of Granny Creek and Hurricane Creek begin their descent through the hills. This 2024 survey documents a predominantly rural region defined by its network of creek valleys and scattered crossroads. The settlement pattern is anchored by small community centers like New Site and the curiously named Hobo Station, while the local genealogy is preserved in numerous family and community burial grounds including Blythes Chapel Cem and Mount Pisgah Cem.

Transport is dictated by the terrain, with a dense web of county roads such as Co RD 3040 and Walden Rd following the ridgelines between drainage basins. Numerous smaller watercourses, including Big Brown Creek and Little Jensay Creek, carve the landscape into a series of north-south corridors. The map provides a clear look at the modern rural infrastructure, from the East Marietta Cem to the remote northern reaches near New Hope Cemetery.
