About this map

The northwest corner of Lamar County, Alabama, is defined by its intricate network of creeks and small family-named settlements. The town of Vernon sits in the northeast, where Yellow Creek Rd and Al-18 meet near Furnace Hill Cem. To the southwest, the community of Star and the hamlet of Molloy are situated among the headwaters and tributaries of Yellow Cr and Wilson Cr. The landscape is notably dense with family and community burial grounds, such as Mt Pleasant Cem, Sailor Cem, and the dual sites of Asbury Cem and Old Asbury Cem in the southern reaches. This modern survey reflects a region where traditional land use and drainage patterns, including the engineered Stillman Ditch, continue to shape the local geography alongside established country roads like Academy Rd and Convalescent Rd.
