About this map

Marquand sits at the convergence of several waterways in this Madison County landscape, where the Upper Castor River meets tributaries like Whitener Creek and Wash Creek. The settlement pattern follows the local topography, with roads and homesteads concentrated in valleys such as Dog Trot Hollow and Vernum Hollow, or skirting the base of Cottoner Mountain.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds documented throughout the area, including Mouser Cemetery near the river and Younts Cemetery to the west. The presence of Canaan Camp and scattered water features like Newman Lake and Pogue Pond indicate a landscape balancing local agriculture with recreational spaces. To the west, the label Klendike marks a historic locality along Greasy Creek, illustrating the area's dispersed rural heritage.
