2012 Map of Wautubbee

About this map

The Chickasawhay River and its meandering tributaries, including Green Br and Alligator Br, carve through this section of Clarke County, creating a landscape defined by water and oil. Industrial activity is centered on the Pachuta Oil Field in the southwest, while small rural settlements like Wautubbee and Elwood serve as local anchors. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with burial sites, many reflecting early family or community ties, such as Old Souenlovie Cem, Old Pleasant Hill Cem, and White Oak Cem. The presence of both an original and a current Pleasant Hill Cem suggests a shift in community center over time. Elevation and terrain are most notable at King Bluff overlooking the river valley, providing a clear picture of the region's physical geography in the early 21st century.
