About this map

Cromwell Crossroads and the outskirts of Collinwood anchor this landscape of deeply incised hollows and ridges in Wayne County. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of narrow valleys such as Lay Hollow, Downing Hollow, and Owl Hollow, where small family cemeteries are frequently tucked away. These burial grounds, including the Cypert-Thornton Cem and Horton Family Cem, offer significant genealogical value, often situated near original family homesteads or along old routes like Old Hog Creek Rd.

Southern Wayne County's transportation history is represented by the Natchez Trace Parkway, which cuts through the southeastern corner near Blair Hill. The map also details numerous watercourses like Indian Cr and Roanoke Cr, which shaped the early settlement patterns of the area. Local gathering points like Baptist Hill and the Masonic Hall Cem reflect the social and spiritual hubs of these rural communities as they appeared in the early 21st century.
