2010 Map of Kosse East

About this map

The town of Kosse serves as the focal point for this rural landscape in Limestone County, where the topography is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Steele Creek, Pin Oak Creek, and Duck Creek. The area is notably rich in family and community burial grounds, which provide significant data for genealogical research. Sites such as Sowders Cemetery, Eutaw Cemetery, and Buttrill Cemetery are scattered across the landscape, often situated near the headwaters of small branches. In the northern reaches, Knox Lake and its associated Knox Lake Dam mark a transition in the drainage of Big Creek. The map details a web of local routes, including Moss Rose Rd and Moss Springs Rd, which connect these dispersed settlements and homesteads. This 2010 survey reflects a modern view of a region that maintains its traditional rural structure, preserved through these small cemeteries and persistent watercourse boundaries.
