1983 Map of Big Creek

Settlement patterns are concentrated around the small communities of Big Creek and Sabougla, where local life is anchored by landmarks such as Chapel Hill Ch, Bethel Ch, and the Magness Cem. The presence of the Calhoun County State Wildlife Management Area in the north further highlights the transition from agricultural use to managed conservation. This 1980s landscape shows the intricate network of creeks, including Sabougla Creek and Shutispear Creek, that define the local topography.
