About this map

Shoal Creek and its many tributaries, including Butler Creek and Keithly Branch, define the landscape of this northern Alabama region. The area is characterized by a high density of family and community burial grounds, such as the Emaline Stutts Cemetery, Cauhorn Cemetery, and Oak Hill Cemetery, which serve as vital markers for local genealogical research. In the south, the terrain meets the broad waters of Wilson Lake, where Blowing Spring and Camp Westmoreland sit along the shoreline.

Several small settlements and rural crossroads are present, including Pruitton in the northwest and Green Hill to the northeast. Historical transit patterns are visible through the identification of river crossings like Savannah Ford and Section Ford, alongside the more modern Goose Shoals Bridge. From the quiet of Happy Hollow to the residential clusters at Parkertown and Bailey Springs, this map illustrates the enduring rural character of Lauderdale County.
