About this map

Runnelstown anchors the northwestern corner of this landscape, situated near where the Mississippi Highway 42 Bridge crosses Tallahalla Creek. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways and small lakes, including Gandy Lake, Eddy Lake, and the series of Blue, Middle, and Rubin lakes. This area of Perry County preserves a strong record of local family history through its numerous small burial grounds such as McGilvary Cem, Burch Cem, and Courtney Cem.

Moving eastward, the landscape transitions toward the winding course of Bogue Homo and the wetlands of Hurricane Bay. Significant local roads like Providence Church Rd and Old Augusta Rd connect the scattered homesteads and recreational spots like Sportsman Lake. The map details the rural infrastructure of the early 21st century, showing how the drainage patterns of Bear Br and Mill Cr have influenced the placement of long-standing family-named routes and rural tracts.
