About this map

Bluewater Creek and its many tributaries, including Possum Creek and Hurricane Creek, define the rural landscape of northern Lauderdale County in this early 21st-century study. The area is characterized by a high density of family-named burial grounds and small community clusters, suggesting a deeply rooted local history tied to the land. Settlements such as Arkdell, Sweet Gum, and Center Hill serve as local hubs, while the Comer Post Office stands as a focal point for the surrounding homesteads.

Genealogists will find significant value in the extensive list of cemeteries, including the Richardson Chapel Cemetery, Stutts Cemetery, and Grissom Cemetery, which are distributed throughout the terrain from Michael Hollow to the banks of Mill Creek. The map documents a modern road network of county routes, such as Co RD 136 and Co RD 464, which follow the natural contours of the branches and springs that feed into the larger creek systems.
