2016 Map of Whitten

About this map

Bucksnort Ridge rises above a landscape defined by the drainage basins of First Butler Creek and Little Cypress Creek, marking the rural borderlands where Wayne County meets Lauderdale County at the Tennessee-Alabama line. This survey captures a dense network of family and community landmarks, particularly evident in the high concentration of small burial grounds that anchor the local geography. Notable sites include Whitten Chapel Cemetery, Old Mount Bethel Cemetery, and the curiously named Railroad Cemetery located near the settlement of Fairview.
