1948 Map of Mud Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Cumberland Plateau terrain defines this region of Jackson County, where the Tennessee Valley Authority and USGS documented a landscape of deep hollows and sharp points in the late 1940s. The settlement at Cornelison and the community surrounding Holland Chapel are connected by a network of rural roads that navigate around dramatic features like The Buzzard Roost and Gizzard Point. The map reveals a dense concentration of local institutions, from Skyline Ch and Fairfield Church to Kyles Sch No 1 and Tupelo Sch, reflecting a well-established social fabric in these valleys. Water sources like Robinson Spring and Bucker Pond provide vital landmarks among the ridges, while numerous family cemeteries, such as Sanders Cem and Dolberry Cem, offer significant clues for genealogical research. The varied topography, from the heights of Crow Mountain to the depths of Peacock Hollow, illustrates the complex geography of north Alabama's plateau country.
