2015 Map of Waverly

About this map

Waverly Mansion stands as a primary cultural landmark on this survey of the Lowndes and Clay County border. The terrain is defined by the convergence of major waterways, where the Tombigbee River meets Tibbee Creek and feeds into Columbus Lake. This hydrological network has historically shaped the settlement patterns of the region, from the southeastern corner near Red Bluff to the eastern outskirts of West Point. Family history and local heritage are preserved in numerous small burial grounds, including Pooles Cem and Young Cem, which are scattered among the drainage basins of McGee Cr and Catalpa Creek. The map documents a landscape of rural roads and creek bottoms, reflecting the enduring agricultural and river-based character of the Waverly area.
