About this map

Lodi serves as a focal point for this rural landscape along the Montgomery and Webster County line during the early 1980s. The area is defined by a dense network of country churches and family burial grounds, suggesting a deeply rooted community structure. Significant landmarks like the Old Northern Grocery and various settlements such as Minerva and Cedar Hill anchor the local geography.

The hydrology of the region is dominated by winding waterways including Little Mulberry Creek, Wolf Creek, and Mouse Creek, which feed into landmarks like Beat Three Lake. Genealogists will find an abundance of small cemeteries, including Pittman Cem, Loggins Cem, and Mulberry Cem, often situated near congregational centers like Shiloh Ch or Salem Ch. The map illustrates a traditional Southern upland pattern of dispersed farmsteads and rural crossroads connected by winding unimproved roads.
