2019 Map of Silerton

About this map

Silerton and its surrounding communities sit at the intersection of Chester and Hardeman counties, a landscape defined by small settlements and numerous family and community burial grounds. This 2019 survey captures the quiet rural character of West Tennessee, where crossroads like Piney Grove, Palestine, and Woodville are linked by a network of local roads including Silerton Rd and Laurel Hill Rd. The terrain is marked by gentle elevations such as Ross Mtn and Pine Top, while the hydrological pattern is dominated by Piney Creek and its many tributaries like Little Piney Cr and Sour Br. Genealogists will find a wealth of local history in the high density of cemeteries, including Hickory Grove Cem, Antioch Cem, and Old Concord Cem, many of which remain as the primary landmarks of this agricultural region.
