2019 Map of Sparta

About this map

The Calfkiller River winds through the heart of this landscape, defining the character of Sparta and its neighboring communities in White County. The settlement patterns are anchored by the river's path, with Findlay situated just north and the small community of Yankeetown positioned near the upper reaches of Cherry Cr. This area is particularly dense with sites of interest for family historians, containing numerous small burial grounds such as Old Sparta Cem and Snodgrass Cem within the town limits, alongside more outlying locations like New Blue Springs Cem and Old Bon Air Cem. The transition from the developed streets of the county seat to the secluded valleys of Bear Cove, Blue Spring Cove, and Hastings Cove illustrates the varied topography of the region, where prominent elevations like Dibrell Mtn and Baker Mtn overlook the waterways and rural road networks.
