2018 Map of Sulligent SW

About this map

Vernon and southern Sulligent anchor this landscape along the Mississippi-Alabama state line in Lamar County. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Watson Creek, Indian Creek, and Moors Creek, which feed into larger bodies like Sulligent Lake and County Lake. The settlement pattern is largely rural, connected by a web of local roads such as Military Grove Road and Shake Rag Road. Numerous country burial grounds like Corinth Cemetery, New Hope Cemetery, and Rising Star Cemetery are scattered throughout the hills, providing valuable markers for genealogical research. The presence of Holley Crossing and the intersection of various county roads suggest long-established transit corridors between these Alabama communities and neighboring Monroe County in Mississippi.
