2020 Map of Belk

About this map

Belk and the surrounding reaches of Luxapalila Creek define this rural landscape on the border of Lamar and Fayette counties. The topography is dominated by the ridges of Scareum Mtn and a dense network of watercourses including Hells Cr, Beaver Cr, and Wiggins Cr. This agricultural and wooded region is marked by an exceptional concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as Wesleys Chapel Cem, Mount Vernon Cem, and Sudduth Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research in this part of Alabama. The settlement at Covin sits in the northeast, while the road network of Bobo Dr and Fowler Loop weaves through the rolling terrain, connecting small homesteads and local landmarks like Hopson Lake and Baptist Lake.
