2024 Map of Catherine

About this map

Prairie Bluff stands as a significant historical anchor on this map, overlooking the William 'Bill' Dannelly Reservoir along the winding border of Wilcox and Dallas counties. This rural landscape is defined by its deep genealogical roots, evidenced by an exceptional density of family and community burial grounds including the Henry Young Family Cem, Rehoboth Cem, and the Shell Creek Cem. Small settlements like Catherine, Alberta, and Prairie are connected by a network of local routes such as Chitlin Switch Rd and Alberta School Rd. The terrain is shaped by numerous waterways, with Chilatchee Creek and Shell Creek cutting through the countryside. The presence of the Prairie Bluff Cem near the river suggests the long-standing occupation of these bluffs, offering a detailed map of the area's social and physical geography.
