New Hebron and the smaller community of Hebron anchor this landscape along the border of Lawrence and Jefferson Davis counties. The terrain is defined by the complex drainage of Silver Creek, with several major tributaries including W Prong Silver Cr, E Prong Silver Cr, and Fiddlers Cr carving through the countryside. This map offers an exceptional look at local family history and genealogy, preserving the locations of over two dozen burial grounds. Many are associated with early settlements or family names, such as North Silver Creek Cem, Galilee Cem, Hartzog Cem, and Old Mobley Cem. The proximity of places like Zion Hill Cem and Spring Hill Cem suggests a rural social structure centered around local congregations and crossroads that persists into the modern era.
