2014 Map of Threet

About this map

The Natchez Trace Pky cuts a modern path through this northern Alabama landscape, running parallel to the older road networks that connect rural communities like Stewartville and Cloverdale. The map reveals a high density of family and community burial sites, including Pine Hill Cem, Austin Cem, and Paulk Cem, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research in Lauderdale County. The drainage patterns of Cypress Cr and its many tributaries, such as Threet Cr and Burcham Cr, dictate the placement of local roads and the dispersed settlement pattern of crossroads communities like Sullivan Crossroads and Johnson Crossroads. To the south, the terrain descends toward Central Heights, showing the gradual transition of the upland creek valleys as they approach the larger Cypress Creek basin.
