About this map

The Eleven Point River dominates this mid-1960s landscape, winding through a series of townships including Eleven Points, Shiloh, and Roanoke. The river corridor is marked by the Black Ferry Bridge and a Gaging Station, reflecting a landscape defined by its waterways. Small settlements and crossroads like Powell and Knotts are visible, while the map provides significant detail for family historians with numerous small burial grounds and rural meeting places. Specifically, McIlroy Cem, Ross Cem, and Thomas Cem are noted near the ridges and creek beds. Religious and community life is centered at Gravesville Ch and Old Union Ch. The terrain transitions from the river bottomlands up to local heights such as Cooley Hill, with natural springs like Coldwater Spring and Fivemile Spring surfacing across the wooded hillsides.
