About this map

Waynesboro serves as the focal point of this 2010 survey, situated at the confluence of several key waterways and historical routes. The town’s layout is defined by the Green River, with essential local landmarks like the Waynesboro Post Office and several burial grounds, including the Old Town Cemetery and Greenwood Cemetery, marking the community's core. The surrounding landscape is a complex system of narrow valleys or "hollows," such as Negro Hollow and Belew Hollow, which have dictated the path of local roads like the Clifton Tpke.

Family history is deeply etched into the terrain through numerous small cemeteries scattered across the ridges and hollows, including the Greeson Family Cemetery, Bennett Cole Cemetery, and Leatherwood Cemetery. These sites, often located near water sources like Hardin Creek or Hog Creek, indicate a long-standing pattern of rural settlement and land use that persists alongside the primary town center.
