About this map

Reyno and Biggers sit on the high ground above the expansive wetlands of the Current River valley in this 2017 survey. The landscape is defined by its complex drainage network, where the river's meandering course is shadowed by numerous oxbow features like Peachtree Lake, Schnabaum Lake, and Gas Plant Lake. To the west, the systematic drainage of the bottomlands is evident through Main Ditch and various lateral channels including Lateral Number 5 and Lateral Number 8.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the quadrangle, including the Old Reyno Cem, Johnston Cem, and the Yellow Hall Cem near Greer Trl. The southern portion of the map transitions into the larger waters of Lake Ashbaugh and Big Lake at the border of Clay Co and Greene Co. Distinctive local names like Two Board Shanty Bend on the Black River and Sore-Eye Point reflect a deeply personal connection to this river-bound geography.
