2020 Map of Pride

About this map

Pickwick Lake and the Tennessee River define the northern reaches of this landscape, where the Lauderdale Co / Colbert Co line follows the water's edge. The terrain transitions from the river's Pride Bluff and numerous towheads like Gibson Towhead into a series of ridges and hollows, including Hawk Pride Mtn and Red Rock Ridge. This area shows a pattern of small settlements and family burial grounds such as Basden Cem, Sherrod Cem, and Keeton Cem, often positioned near established thoroughfares like the Old Memphis Pike. The proximity of Tuscumbia on the eastern edge highlights the regional importance of this stretch of river for transportation and local commerce, while the interior is marked by named hollows such as Counterfeit Hollow and Willis Hollow.
