2016 Map of Stantonville

About this map

Adamsville and Stantonville anchor this McNairy County landscape, situated along a network of creek drainages and historic road corridors. The Tennessee Valley Divide cuts through the southwestern corner, a significant topographic marker separating the various forks of Owl Cr from the northern water systems. This area is notably dense with family and community burial grounds, including the Williams Cem near Hickory Flats and the McWhirter Cem east of Adamsville. The terrain is defined by numerous named hollows such as Dutchman Hollow and Bateman Hollow, which illustrate the local drainage patterns into Horse Cr and Graham Cr. Further east, the Snake Creek Canal represents a managed water system through the flatter lowlands, contrasting with the winding natural courses of Teuton Br and Clear Cr that characterize the rural stretches between Gilchrist and Mount Vinson.
