About this map

The Blountsville Valley corridor serves as the primary setting for this 2018 survey, centered on the historic town of Blountsville. The landscape is defined by the significant hydrology of the region, where the Mulberry Fork and the Locust Fork of the Black Warrior River influence the terrain. The area is marked by numerous family-named landmarks and rural communities such as Cleveland, Mountain Grove, and Joy, reflecting a long-standing pattern of ridge-and-valley settlement.

Genealogists and local historians can find a wealth of specific data points, including several dedicated burial grounds like Blackwood-Cornelius Cem and Oak Grove Cem. The map also illustrates the topographic prominence of features such as Hamilton Mtn and Nevins Mtn, alongside agricultural and commercial points like the Spring-Valley Farms Ponds. These details provide a clear view of how rural Blount County infrastructure has evolved around its natural spring and river systems.
