2011 Map of Abernant

About this map

Abernant serves as a central hub in this section of Tuscaloosa County, where the topography is defined by the significant rise of Cely Ann Mountain and the long stretch of Griffin Ridge. The landscape is intricately carved by Davis Creek, Rockcastle Creek, and Mud Creek, which feed into an extensive system of residential and recreational waters. The southern portion of the map reveals a high concentration of man-made water bodies, including Million Dollar Lake, Lake Number Seven, and Lake Retreat, reflecting a shift toward lakeside community development. Genealogists and local historians can locate several long-standing burial sites such as Liberty Cemetery and Davis Creek Cemetery. Small settlements like Pattersontown, Yolande, and Rickey are linked by a network of winding rural roads, such as Hogsick Creek Rd and Sumter Rd, tracing the legacy of earlier industrial and residential patterns in the Alabama coal region.
