2020 Map of Cadaretta

About this map

Cadaretta and Dentontown occupy a landscape defined by the drainage divide between the Calhoun and Webster county line. This 2020 edition documents the rural character of the region, where family-named landmarks and historical burial grounds such as Philadelphia Cem and Spring Hill Cem remain the primary focal points of the community. The terrain is shaped by numerous waterways, including Sabougla Creek and Horse Pen Cr, which carve through the elevations of Bald Hill and Sandy Mtn. The map shows a transition from the structured township of Slate Springs in the northeast to the more dispersed homesteads and farms connected by a network of rural roads like Cadaretta Rd and Dentontown Rd. The density of cemeteries, from Roberts Cem to Pittman Cem, offers a detailed spatial record for genealogists studying the generational families of this North Mississippi corridor.
