2020 Map of Almeria

About this map

Almeria and the surrounding rural communities of Bullock County are defined by a network of creeks and small family cemeteries that trace the settlement history of south-central Alabama. The terrain is intricately dissected by waterways like Leatherbreeches Cr and Bughall Cr, which dictated the positioning of crossroads like Hooks Crossroads and Jenkins Crossroads. Genealogists will find a wealth of local data in the distribution of burial sites, from High Ridge Cem near Inverness to the isolated Liberty Cem further south. The landscape is dotted with small impoundments such as Paulk Lake and Allen Lake, while the southern reaches near Postoak show a transition into the more open drainages of Buck Cr. This map documents a quiet agricultural region where county roads connect long-established hamlets, preserving the mid-20th-century settlement pattern into the modern era.
