2020 Map of Waverly

About this map

Tombigbee River and its major tributaries, including Tibbee Creek and Town Creek, define the landscape where Clay and Lowndes counties meet. This survey captures a terrain marked by extensive wetlands and oxbow formations like Moon Lake and Fortson Lake, alongside the modern footprint of Columbus Lake. The eastern edge of West Point appears in the northwest, while smaller settlements such as Waverly, Stephen, and Red Bluff dot the central and eastern sections. For genealogists, the map is a primary resource for locating several family-named burial sites, including Pitchlynn Cem, Pooles Cem, Young Cem, and Lee Cem. The network of secondary roads, such as Old Waverly Rd and Matthews Gin Rd, connects these rural communities through the alluvial lowlands and rising bluffs overlooking the river valley.
