2019 Map of Michie

About this map

Michie serves as a central hub in this corner of McNairy County, where the landscape is defined by the headwaters of Lick Cr and its engineered Lick Creek Canal. The rural settlement pattern is deeply rooted in local genealogy, evidenced by numerous family and community burial grounds such as Sand Hill Cem, Lebanon Cem, and Carter Cem. Small hamlets and crossroads like Tulu, Pebble Hill, and Needmore are linked by a network of named country roads, including Michie Pebble Hill Rd and Taylor Rd. To the south, the community of Acton sits near the drainage of Chambers Cr, while the eastern boundary is marked by the line between McNairy and Hardin Counties. The terrain is a complex web of small drainages like Donald Springs Br and Little Lick Cr, illustrating the traditional agricultural and timber-based layout of southern Tennessee.
