Thompson River and its numerous tributaries, including Twelvemile Cr and Sand Cr, define the drainage patterns across this rural landscape at the junction of Union, Clarke, Ringgold, and Decatur counties. This modern topographic study reveals a territory characterized by its agricultural section lines and a network of named roads such as Spring Valley Lake Dr and State Hwy 260. For genealogists and local historians, the map is particularly valuable for its precise location of several rural burial grounds. These include Otterbein Cem in the north, Olinger Cem and Homewood Cem further south, and the Cornwall Cem and Leas Cem near the southern border. The intricate contour lines illustrate the undulating terrain between the river valleys, showing how the land has been subdivided into townships like t71n r28w and t72n r27w.
