About this map

Letohatchee and the rural crossroads of Tyson anchor this portion of the Alabama coastal plain along the Lowndes and Montgomery county line. The landscape is defined by a dense network of family-named water bodies and small cemeteries that speak to generations of local land ownership. Significant water features such as Lila Rebecca Webster Lake, J L Crenshaw Lake Number One, and Judges Pond are interspersed among the headwaters of North Prong Steep Creek and Pintlala Creek.

For those researching family history, the map identifies numerous small burial grounds, including New Pleasant Valley Cem, Beulah Cem, and Mosleys Cem. Transportation in the area relies on a grid of county roads and named lanes like Owens Farm Rd and Chicken Pit Rd, while the interstate corridor cuts a modern diagonal through the older agricultural fabric. The naming conventions for local landmarks, from Silvests Pond to Rogers Cem, preserve a detailed record of the families who have long shaped this rural community.
