About this map

Figsboro and its surrounding countryside define the landscape of this region along the border of Franklin and Henry Counties. The terrain is marked by prominent peaks such as Turkeycock Mtn, Blue Mtn, and Fork Mtn, which separate the various drainage basins for Snow Cr, Reed Cr, and Beaver Cr. In the southern portion of the sheet, the Martinsville Reservoir occupies a significant valley floor, fed by Camp Br and Beaver Cr.

Genealogical researchers will find a dense concentration of family and community burial grounds, including the Snow Creek Memorial Gardens Cem, Pleasant Grove Cem, and Carver Memorial Gardens. The map also traces a network of rural routes like Snow Creek Rd and Figsboro Rd, which connect the scattered homesteads and ridges. This modern survey provides a detailed look at the rural road network and topography as it remains integrated with decades-old family names and landmark knobs.
