About this map

Mulberry and the surrounding Lincoln County countryside are defined by the winding course of the Elk River and its numerous tributaries. The landscape is deeply carved by family-named hollows, including Taylor Hollow, McGee Hollow, and John McNeece Moore Hollow, which suggest generations of local settlement. Industrial and agricultural history is anchored at Lockes Mill on the E Fork Mulberry Cr, a site that points to the importance of water power in this rural district.

Further south, the community of Kelso sits near the riverbanks, where geographic features like Dickey Island and Pitts Bend illustrate the shifting nature of the river. Infrastructure for crossing these waters is well-documented through several named structures, such as Mulberry Bridge, Cowley Bridge, and Shiloh Bridge. The presence of The Quarter near the Mulberry Cr confluence and settlements like Gattistown and Champ provide a detailed look at the scattered habitations of the region during the early 21st century.
