Shankleville and its neighboring settlements define this pocket of Newton County, where family-named landmarks provide a window into the area's rural heritage. This landscape is marked by several significant burial grounds, including the Jim Shankle Cem and Shankleville Cem, which anchor the local history of the freedom colony established here. To the north, the communities of Wiergate and Burkeville sit along the upper reaches of Little Cow Cr, while Newton occupies the southwestern corner of the sheet near the Newton Municipal Airport.
