About this map

Mount Vernon serves as the central hub of this 2018 survey, where the convergence of major interstate corridors meets a landscape deeply rooted in its local heritage. The city's growth is framed by significant water features such as the Louisville and Nashville Reservoir and the winding course of Casey Fork. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with burial grounds, ranging from the central Oakwood Cem to the outlying Wolf Prairie Cem and the adjacent Old Shiloh Cem and New Shiloh Cem.

Smaller surrounding settlements like Drivers, Marcoe, and Bakerville anchor the rural corners of the quadrangle. The terrain is defined by the Big Muddy River system to the west and several man-made lakes, including Peckerwood Lake and Lake Jaycee, which illustrate the region's managed water resources. The detailed road network, from named city streets to rural routes like E Richview Rd, provides a clear view of modern Jefferson County's infrastructure and residential expansion.
