The field that Roth Edmonds calls "your south creek piece" when he orders Lucas to finish planting it (59) actually belongs to Edmonds himself; it is one of the fields that Lucas works as tenant farmer on the plantation. The narrative does say that "Lucas approved his fields and liked to work them" (42). This one is either a corn- or a cotton-field.
Ratliff mentions "Massachusetts or Boston" along with "Ohio" in The Hamlet when he's talking with people in Frenchman's Bend about "the Northerner" who wants to create a goat farm fifteen miles west of Jefferson (87). A few pages later he refers to "Boston, Maine," which may be a genuine mistake or may be his way of lumping 'the North' together into one kind of place, a place that is different from "this country" - i.e. the Bend, Yoknapatawpha, the South (89).
Ratliff mentions "Ohio" when he's talking with people in Frenchman's Bend about "the Northerner" who wants to create a goat farm in Yoknapatawpha - he includes "Ohio" and, for example, "Boston, Maine" as a way to represent 'the North' as a different kind of place than "this country" - i.e. Yoknapatawpha, or the South (87, 89).
In "Barn Burning" all we see of the barn on the De Spain estate that Ab burns is the "glare" of the blaze, which Sarty sees "blotting the stars," "staining" the sky "abruptly and violently upward" (24). The barn is located somewhere "across the park" - the landscaped grounds - of the De Spain plantation, on the other side of a "vine-massed fence" (23).
The salesman reminds Lucas that they have left the mule in "that cottonhouse" (86). A cotton house is a simple structure built to store the cotton as it's being picked until it's time to take it to a cotton gin. At the time this episode takes place, August, it would be empty, so it can be used instead to store a stolen mule.
This is the spot somewhere in the Big Bottom where Ike and Sam Fathers encounter the bear "one June," and Ike's little fyce dog actually bays the bear against "the trunk of a big cypress" tree (200).
The last leg on the narrator's trip back from the big woods to the farm four miles out of town is probably along the road that elsewhere Faulkner calls the 'valley road.' The boy and his father are alone in the "surrey," and "the ground is frozen beneath the horses' feet and beneath the wheels" (211).
The plantation where Sam Fathers works is another example of how Faulkner moves his un-real estate around Yoknapatawpha. In "A Justice" it belongs to the Compson family. In Go Down, Moses it belongs to the McCaslin-Edmonds family. In these two intermediate stories, "The Old People" and "The Bear," it belongs to the family of the unnamed young narrator. Like the Compson farm, this "plantation" - as it is called in "The Bear" (293) - is situated "four miles from Jefferson" ("Old People," 203).
Like the cabin that Sam Fathers lives in before he moves out to the big woods, the "plantation blacksmith-shop" where he works for different white families is one of the locations that Faulkner moves around to suit his changing imaginative project (160). Initially, in "A Justice," it's on the Compson farm, but for the hunting stories he wrote Faulkner first attenuates Sam's connection to the white world (the family he works for in "The Old People" is not named), then in Go Down, Moses shifts that connection to the McCaslins, and this blacksmith shop comes with him each time.
