i have seen several topo maps of the area under lake martin before the lake was built .they are located in the 1st floor of auburn university library in the archives section.

there are 3 little communities/towns that were covered with water when the lake was built. no telling how many indian villiages.

one evening after leaving chuck's with pizza idling toward dead timbers, i observed in my depth machine some obvious obstructions on the screen. i circled around and marked them again on the machine. satisfied i had found "susanna" i left. i have never been able to find it again.

sorry, no GPS at that time. it was about 60 feet deep. i don't know about you but 60 feet in a freshwater lake is both too cold and dark to enjoy diving. 40-45 is about my limit in lake martin.

by the way, this is right in line with the traffic up and down chuck's marina slough, only maybe a little to the south.
