2016 Map of Bolivar West

About this map

The Hatchie River dominates this landscape of western Hardeman County, winding through the expansive Hatchie Bottom where numerous oxbow features like Brushy Pond, Round Pond, and Clover Lakes mark the ancient path of the water. The terrain transitions from these low-lying wetlands to the rolling uplands where small rural communities and family-named cemeteries are established. To the west, the settlement of Norment sits near Norment Cem, while the western edge of Bolivar appears in the southeast corner. Local history is etched into the landscape via family landmarks such as Parker Cem and Bartlett Chapel Cem. The road network, including Vildo Rd and Ermon Rd, provides a framework for the agricultural and residential patterns that have persisted around the river’s floodplain.
