About this map

Otter Creek and its many winding tributaries define the rural landscape of this Wayne County region during the early 21st century. The settlement of Dees Town serves as a central landmark, surrounded by a dense network of family-named burial grounds and hollows that speak to the deep-rooted genealogy of the area. Notable sites include Dees Cemetery, Henson Cemetery, and Risby Cemetery, all positioned near the creek’s path.

To the south, the Black River flows past Granite Bend, while the northeast corner is characterized by the upland terrain of Childs Hollow and water features like Big Lake Creek. The land is segmented by numerous county roads and forest routes, linking small locales like Hubert with the surrounding timberland. This 2011 survey provides a clear view of the complex hydrography and dispersed rural communities, capturing a snapshot of the region's geographic layout before further modern development.
