2011 Map of Sturgeon

About this map

Sturgeon Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Sturgeon Creek and Beals Fork, carve a complex drainage pattern across this Jackson County landscape. The area is defined by a network of rural neighborhoods and small settlements rather than a central town, with locales like Moors Neighborhood, Needmore Neighborhood, and Big Spring Neighborhood dotting the hillsides. For genealogists, the map identifies specific family-named landmarks such as the Botner Cemetery and the John Tyler Brewer Cemetery, alongside established community hubs like Vincent Post Office and Greenhill Post Office. Small mountain summits including Hunters Knob and Island Creek Knob rise above the winding valley roads, while the junction of Grassy Creek and Sturgeon Creek highlights the Importance of watercourses in historical settlement placement.
