About this map

Kentucky Lake and the Tennessee River dominate this West Tennessee landscape, where the waters divide Benton, Houston, and Stewart Counties. The river valley is defined by numerous inlets and family-named hollows, including Biggins Hollow, Lane Hollow, and Johnson Hollow. These topographical features often house small family burial grounds such as Martin Cem, Bush Cem, and Bradley Cem, providing significant points of interest for local genealogy researchers.

Settlement patterns center on the community of McKinnon and the nearby Houston County Airport. Further north, the intersection at Cotton Patch Crossroads and the various landings along the shore, such as Hurricane Landing Rd, reflect the region's reliance on both land and water transit. Notable landmarks like Douglas Bluff and Copperas Bluff rise above the river, while smaller water bodies like Richland Cr and Cane Creek drain the surrounding timbered ridges.
