About this map

South Fulton and the surrounding rural communities of McConnell and Ruthville define this portion of the Tennessee-Kentucky borderlands. The landscape transitions from the urban street grid of South Fulton in the northwest to the agricultural bottomlands and wetlands associated with the North Fork Obion River. This river system, along with Vowell Br and Sandy Br, dominates the southern half of the terrain, creating a complex network of waterways and drainage patterns.

Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial grounds, including the South Fulton Cem, Mount Moriah Cem, and the Sandy Branch Cem. These sites, alongside landmarks like Harold Muzzall Lake and the settlement of Camp Ground, offer clear evidence of long-established rural residency. The boundary between Obion County and Weakley County bisects the map, showing how local administrative lines intersect with the winding paths of rural roads like Ralston Rd and Tom Counce Rd.
