2014 Map of Wood

About this map

Wood centers this rural landscape in DeKalb County, where the terrain is defined by the winding paths of Little Third Fork and Lost Cr. The area is notably dotted with small family and community burial grounds, providing significant points of interest for genealogists tracing local lineages. These include Butler Cemetery in the north and Sharp Cemetery to the west, along with Smith Cemetery and Botts Cemetery. The presence of several managed water bodies, such as the Maysville Reservoir, Gene Carter Farm Lake, and C-75 Lake, indicates the importance of water management and irrigation in this agricultural region. The map reflects a stable, grid-based rural road system with local thoroughfares like NW Main Rd and NW Gospel Rd connecting the scattered farmsteads and historic family lands.
