2020 Map of Waterloo

About this map

Waterloo sits at the confluence where Second Creek meets the wide expanse of Pickwick Lake, a landscape defined by the intersection of Lauderdale County, Alabama, and Tishomingo County, Mississippi. This 2020 survey documents a region characterized by complex drainage systems and numerous named hollows, such as Tanyard Hollow and Wolfpen Hollow, which carve through Pea Ridge and Manbone Ridge. The southern portion of the map focuses on the river-border settlements of Eastport and Riverton, positioned near the historic Colbert Shoals. For genealogists, the map identifies several burial sites, including the Old Eastport Cem and Richardson Cem, providing precise locations for ancestral research. The intricate network of county roads, like Lauderdale Co 14 and Till Hollow Rd, reveals the modern connectivity of these historic Tennessee River landings.
