2016 Map of McKenzie

About this map

McKenzie and the neighboring community of Gleason anchor this Western Tennessee landscape, where the borders of Weakley, Henry, and Carroll counties converge. The area is defined by a dense network of family and community burial grounds, such as Smyth Cem and Page Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research in this rural corridor. The northern reaches are shaped by the wetlands surrounding Middle Fork Obion Lake and the drainage of Tumbling Cr. This 2016 survey captures the established institutional presence of Bethel Coll alongside small rural congregations like Union Church and Everett Chapel Cem. The transition from the small-town street grids of McKenzie to the agricultural expanses connected by Old State Hwy 22 reveals a persistent pattern of rural settlement and local industry.
