2016 Map of Medon

About this map

The settlement of Medon and its surrounding countryside are defined by a complex intersection of county lines where Madison, Hardeman, and Chester counties meet. This area of West Tennessee is marked by numerous small cemeteries and family-named landmarks, reflecting a deep-seated genealogical history. Numerous cemeteries such as Big Springs Cem, McDaniel Cem, and Pleasant Springs Cem are scattered across the landscape, often situated near water features like Clover Cr and Sandy Cr. The geography is further punctuated by private and local reservoirs, including Wilderwood Lake and the aptly named Lake Placid. Local road networks like Medon Malesus Rd and Parkburg Rd connect the primary communities of Parkburg and Deanburg, following the natural drainage patterns of the Bear Cr and Piney Cr watersheds.
