2024 Map of Pruitton

About this map

Wilson Lake defines the southern boundary of this Lauderdale County landscape, where the waters of Shoal Creek and the Saint Florian Branch flow toward the Tennessee River system. This contemporary survey of the region north of Florence captures a rural landscape defined by historic family-named settlements like Pruitton and Green Hill. The area is densely marked with family cemeteries and small community centers, including the Fisher-Stutts Cem, Emmaline Stutts Cem, and Henry Stutts Cem, reflecting deep-rooted generational ties to the land. Near the lake, the community of Bailey Springs remains a notable landmark, while the town of St. Florian sits in the southwest corner. The terrain is dissected by numerous hollows, such as Happy Hollow and Williams Hollow, and several significant springs like Blowing Spring and Brotherick Spring, which continue to feed the local creek network including Brush Creek and Sixmile Creek.
