2010 Map of Puryear

About this map

Puryear and the nearby village of Hazel anchor this landscape along the Tennessee-Kentucky border, a region defined by its numerous family and community burial grounds. From the Puryear Memorial Garden to the Old Foundary Hill Cemetery, the map serves as a meticulous record of local heritage and genealogical history. The terrain is divided by a network of waterways including the East Fork Clarks River, Mormon Branch, and the North Fork Obion River, which meander through a countryside predominantly organized by rural routes such as Old Paris Murray Rd and Puryear Crossland Rd. Significant landmarks like Spinks Spur and the Kentucky-Tennessee Spur highlight the unique topography near the state line, while Mason Lake and the Middle Fork Blood River characterize the eastern reaches of this borderland territory.
