1954 Map of Threet

About this map

The Natchez Trace Parkway cuts diagonally across this section of Lauderdale County, tracing an ancient corridor through a landscape defined by the branching waters of Cypress Creek and Lindsey Creek. Small agricultural communities like Threet and Austin Com anchor the rural territory, while the network of crossroads settlements such as Johnson Crossroads and Sullivan Crossroads illustrates the mid-century social geography of the Alabama-Tennessee borderlands. Educational and spiritual life centers on local landmarks including Cloverdale School, Central School, and churches such as Macedonia Ch and Wesley Chapel. Genealogists will find particular value in the clearly marked family and community burial grounds, such as Dowdy Cem and Simmons Cem, which remain as permanent fixtures amidst the evolving woodlots and pastures recorded by the Tennessee Valley Authority and the Geological Survey.
