2024 Map of Sulligent

About this map

The Buttahatchee River meanders across the state line between Alabama and Mississippi, anchoring a landscape defined by small cross-border communities. Centered on Sulligent in Lamar County, this modern survey illustrates a network of rural roads and drainage systems like Bogue Creek and Lost Creek that have shaped local movement for generations. The geography is punctuated by small, family-named burial grounds and churches such as Macedonia Cem and Wesley Chapel Cem, which offer significant data points for genealogists tracing regional lineages. To the west, the settlement of Gattman sits just over the state line, while further north, the map identifies small clusters like Pine Springs and Sipsey Fork. Notable infrastructure including the Dinky Line Rd and Us HWY 278 provides a clear view of the modern transportation corridor that links these timbered hills and bottomlands.
