About this map

The Stanton quadrangle occupies a intersection of West Tennessee counties, where the boundaries of Tipton, Haywood, and Fayette meet. The landscape is defined by the extensive drainage systems of the Hatchie Bottom and Cypress Bottom, alongside the engineered Big Muddy Canal. These wetlands surround established agricultural settlements such as Keeling and Fredonia, which are connected by a network of rural roads including Roy Faulk Rd and McDonald Rd.

Family history and local heritage are well-preserved through numerous burial sites scattered across the township, such as Wesley Cem near Birds Bower and the Bland Cemeteries south of Belmont. The topographical relief is punctuated by elevations like Meux Hill and Fortescue Hill, providing a clear view of the transition between the bottomlands and the upland farms that have sustained these communities for generations.
