About this map

Bynum Cem serves as a central landmark in this portion of Houston County, where the landscape is defined by a complex network of creeks and rural arteries. The map documents the drainage patterns of Big Cr and Tantabogue Cr, which carve through the undulating terrain alongside Georgia Camp Cr and Kellisons Cr. This 2019 survey illustrates the persistent importance of historic thoroughfares like the Old Huntsville Rd and Lone Pine Rd, which continue to anchor the local transportation network.

Local history is etched into the names of the natural features and small-scale infrastructure, from the depths of Hales Gully to the crossings at Lost Cr. The distribution of county roads, such as Shilo Rd and Bobalik Rd, suggests a community deeply rooted in its geography, where modern farm-to-market roads like FM 1280 overlay a much older system of property boundaries and family-named landmarks.
