About this map

Millport serves as the primary hub in this Lamar County landscape, situated where Luxapalila Creek and Driver Creek converge. The town's layout is defined by a traditional grid including James St, Monroe St, and Old Kennedy Rd. Energy extraction is a visible driver of the local economy, evidenced by the Millport Gas Field, Mount Carmel Gas Field, and Kennedy Gas Field distributed across the surrounding hills.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites, including the Oddfellows Cemetery within the town limits and more remote locations like the Eatman Cemetery near Shelton Branch. To the south, the community of Shaw sits near Little Coal Fire Creek, while the presence of the Church Camp and numerous named roads like Mount Carmel Rd suggest a well-connected rural network. The topography is intricately carved by a dense web of waterways, from Gus Johnson Branch to the meandering Clear Creek.
