McKenzie and Gleason anchor this West Tennessee landscape, where the agricultural grid is etched with dozens of family burial grounds and small creek systems. The terrain is defined by the drainage of the Middle Fork Obion Lake, managed by the Middle Fork Obion Dam Eleven. Throughout the region, genealogists will find numerous small resting places like the Old El Bethel Cemetery, Tyson Cemetery, and Everett Chapel Cemetery scattered near rural thoroughfares like Old State Hwy 22. The Gleason Post Office serves as a central landmark for the town of Gleason, while the surrounding countryside is divided by named waterways such as Tumbling Creek, Spring Creek, and Boaz Creek. This 2010 survey records the enduring footprint of rural Tennessee settlements, preserving the names of local landowners through roads like Janes Mill Rd and Cannon Store Rd.
