1967 Map of Sulligent

About this map

The Buttahatchee River meanders through the heart of this landscape along the Alabama and Mississippi border, defining the local geography as it flows past the settlements of Sulligent and Gattman. This mid-century survey, updated in the 1980s, highlights a rural economy tied to the land and the Burlington Northern railroad corridor. The area is dotted with numerous small family burial grounds and community landmarks, such as Almon Cem, Pickle Cem, and Sandlin Cem.
