About this map

Whitewater River and Little Whitewater Creek dominate this Bollinger County landscape, where the rural settlements of Scopus and Mayfield serve as local hubs. The terrain is deeply carved by drainage systems like James Creek and Panther Creek, creating numerous named hollows such as Camp Hollow and Bull Lot Hollow. This 1980 survey reveals a community anchored by its small country congregations and burial grounds, reflecting generations of local family history. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific data, from the Judge Long Cem and Seabaugh Cem to the Little Whitewater Ch. Notable topographic landmarks like Buck Knob rise above the winding creek beds, while the presence of Stillhouse Spring and Big Blue Spring Branch points to the importance of natural water sources for the area's homesteads and agricultural life.
