About this map

Gilreath Mill stands as a focal point in this portion of Pickett County, where the Wolf River winds through a landscape defined by significant family-named ridges and gaps. The map documents a dense network of family burials, including the Edgefield Cem, Parris-Riley Cem, and Scott-Rich Cem, providing a detailed record for genealogical research in rural Tennessee.

Settlement patterns follow the high ground and river bends, from the northern community of Static on the Kentucky border to Moodyville and Amonette Bend near the Obey River. The terrain is marked by prominent summits like Hildreth Knob and Double Top Mtn, while the Pickett and Fentress county line and the state line with Kentucky establish the political geography. The distribution of small settlements such as Forbus, Chanute, and Byrdstown illustrates the enduring rural character of this upland region.
