2013 Map of Riverside

About this map

The Buffalo River meanders through this Lewis County landscape, defining the geography of rural settlements like Riverside and Voorhies. This terrain is deeply etched by narrow hollows bearing names that suggest a history of early agriculture and industry, such as Slaughter Pen Hollow, Coaling Hollow, and the Rockhouse Creek Valley. The presence of Slag-Pile Pond near Locust Hollow points toward the region's historical iron production, while the modern Palmer Village-Napier Lake Airport sits near the eastern edge. Along the southern border, the Natchez Trace Pkwy follows the ancient path across Buttermilk Ridge, connecting local roads like Brush Creek Cemetery Rd to the broader regional network near Turkey Track.
