2020 Map of Bethel

About this map

Commerce and Bethel sit at the center of this rural South Alabama landscape, where the headwaters of the E Sepulga River and W Sepulga River drain the rolling countryside. This 2020 survey highlights a network of historic transportation routes, most notably the Old Federal Rd cutting across the northern boundary, a legacy of early 19th-century migration. Small communities like Mixonville and Deans are defined by their proximity to local watercourses such as Duck Cr and Pigett Mill Cr. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including Middleton Cem, Concord Cem, and both the Bethel West Cem and Old Bethel Cem. The map provides a contemporary view of these long-established settlements within the shifting timber and agricultural lands of Conecuh, Monroe, and Butler counties.
