About this map

Caledonia serves as the central hub of this Lowndes County landscape, where the town's residential grid meets a network of rural roads and natural waterways. The geography is defined by the Buttahatchee River and its accompanying Running Slu, creating a complex drainage system that includes Maple Br and Bluff Cr. Subsurface activity is noted by the presence of the Buttahatchee Gas Field and the Caledonia Gas Field, indicating the region's energy production role in the early 21st century.

Family history is well-preserved through several established burial grounds across the quadrangle, such as Unity Cem and Rowan Cem. Further south, the Military Chapel Cem reflects the local community's heritage near the confluence of Howard Cr and Yellow Cr. Small settlements like Flint Hill and numerous named roads like Old Honnoll Mill Rd and Lawrence Bridge Rd provide a detailed view of how this Mississippi-Alabama borderland was settled and navigated.
