2018 Map of Barachias

About this map

Barachias and Pike Road anchor the southeastern portion of this map, illustrating the transition from the expanding city of Montgomery into a rural landscape of named family burial grounds and agrarian landmarks. The presence of Perrys Mill on Jenkins Creek and the associated Perrys Mill Cemetery points to the early local industry that once defined these crossroads. Education and aviation are prominent features of the northern sector, with large campuses for Auburn Univ - Montgomery and Amridge Univ near Kershaw Airport. The terrain is shaped by the winding paths of Catoma Creek and Little Catoma Creek, which create natural boundaries between established neighborhoods and the open fields of Macedonia and Pinedale. Small-scale water features like Miller Pond and Herman Gibson Lake further characterize the hydrology of this Alabama Piedmont area.
