IT week Map of Maycomb County

  • Maycomb, some twenty miles east of Finch's Landing, was the county seat of Maycomb County. (4)
  • Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose's house, two doors to the north … (6)
  • … the Radley Place three doors to the south. (11)
  • Jem and I heard something next door in Miss Rachel Haverford's collard patch. (6)
  • Routine contentment was improving our treehouse that rested between giant twin chinaberry trees in the back yard, fussing running through our list of dramas … (8)
  • The Radley place jutted into a sharp curve beyond our house. Walking south, one faced its front porch; the sidewalk turned and ran beside the lot. (8)
  • The Maycomb school grounds adjoined the back of the Radley lot. (9)
  • From the Radley chickenyard, tall pecan trees shook their fruits into the schoolyard. (9)
  • … the longer he would stand hugging the lightpole on the corner. (12)
  • They left the corner, crossed the side street that ran in front of the Radley house, and stopped at the gate. (15)
  • Jem and I were leavin’...He pointed across the street. At first we saw nothing but a kudzu-covered front porch, but a closer inspection revealed an arc of water descending from the leaves and splashing in the yellow circle of the streetlight,...Jem said Mr. Avery misfigured. (p. 31)
  • Two live oaks stood at the end of the Radley lot. (33)
  • Cecil Jacobs, who lived at the far end of our street next door to the post office, walked a total of one mile per school day to avoid the Radley place and old Mrs. Lafayette Dubose. (35)
  • We had strolled to the front yard, where Dill stood looking down the street at the dreary face of the Radley Place. (36)
  • The tire bumped on the gravel and skeered across the road to the Radley's place. (37)
  • Every Christmas Uncle Jack yelled across the street to Miss Maudie to come marry him. (43)
  • ...Jem and I edged down the sidewalk parallel to the side of the house. (48)
  • We leaped over the wall that separated Miss Rachel's yard from our driveway. (50)
  • Mr. Avery boarded across the street from Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose's house. (50)
  • We ran across the schoolyard, crawled under the fence to the Deer's Pasture behind their house, climbed our back fence, and were at the back steps [of our house] … (p 54)
  • There he was returning to me. His white shirt bobbed over the back fence. (p. 57)
  • Jem hopped across the front yard. . . . When we were on the sidewalk in front of Miss Maudie's house Mr. Avery accosted us (65)
  • Jem and I slid across the street. Miss Maudie was staring at the smoking in her yard. (71)
  • Mrs. Dubose lived alone except for a Negro girl in constant attendance, two doors up the street from us in a house with steep front and a dog-trot hall. (99)

  2. GOSH!

    Oh wow the map is so cool! You're really something to be able to craft something by just looking at words. Something I'll never be able to do. But oh well, we've got our own strengths, don't we? (:
