Pomona and Etherton anchor the southern and central portions of this Jackson County landscape, characterized by a complex network of ridges and hollows such as Cave Valley and Wolfden Hollow. The eastern edge is dominated by the sprawling waters of Cedar Lake, while the topography to the west is marked by Rocky Hollow and the Pomona Natural Bridge Picnic Area. This area exhibits a deep-rooted burial history with numerous family and community plots including Mount Carbon Cem, Bostick Cem, and Hiller-Crab Orchard Cem. The presence of the Jackson County Farm near the center of the quadrangle suggests a history of local agricultural administration. Roadways like Potato Patch Holler Rd and Natural Bridge Rd provide clues to the local geography and historical vernacular of the region.
