2018 Map of Millport NW

About this map

Molloy and the outskirts of Vernon anchor this northwest portion of Lamar County, where the landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Yellow Creek and its many tributaries. The area maintains a rural, dispersed settlement pattern with a high density of family and community burial grounds, reflecting deep generational ties to the land. Notable sites include Old Asbury Cemetery and Asbury Cemetery in the southwest, along with Furnace Hill Cemetery and Sailor Cemetery further north. Water features such as Stillman Ditch, Rogers Lake, and Gault Lake illustrate the local hydrology. The road network, including Academy Road and McGill Gin Road, connects these small communities and agricultural zones, while the presence of landmarks like Mount Nebo Cemetery and Lampkin Cemetery provides specific points of interest for genealogical research in this part of Alabama.
