2022 Map of Windle

About this map

Roaring River and its numerous tributaries, including Buffalo Br and Lovelady Br, carve a intricate drainage pattern through this portion of the Highland Rim. The landscape is defined by its small upland settlements and a high density of rural cemeteries that speak to the deep genealogical roots of the area. Small communities such as Hardy, Waterloo, and Poplar Springs serve as local hubs, connected by a network of winding roads like Hardys Chapel RD and Terrapin Ridge RD. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the terrain transitions toward the growing community of Rickman, situated near the county line. The map reveals the proximity of family and community burial grounds, such as Dodson Chapel Cem and Netherland Cem, which remain essential landmarks for local historians tracing the settlement patterns across the Overton and Putnam County border.
