2020 Map of Bluff Springs

About this map

Bluff Springs and the surrounding rural landscapes of Coffee and Pike counties are defined by a network of creeks and small family cemeteries. The terrain is marked by notable elevations such as Coston Hill and an intricate drainage system including the E Fork Stinking Cr, Sweetwater Cr, and Whitewater Creek. Infrastructure like the Lewis Mill Bridge and Thames Bridge indicates historical crossing points across these waterways, serving the small settlements of Wilkinstown, Zoar, and Shady Grove. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial sites documented across the quadrangle, including Zions Chapel Cem, Old Sharron Cem, and Mount Hebron Cem. This survey illustrates a quiet, agricultural pocket of Alabama where many place names are tied directly to local water bodies and prominent hills.
