2018 Map of Calhoun

About this map

Fort Deposit anchors the southern portion of this Lowndes County landscape, where the terrain shifts from the elevations of the Gilmer Hills toward the lower drainage basins of Beaver Cr and Mussel Cr. The area is defined by a dense network of local roads and water bodies, including Lanes Pond, Hartleys Pond, and several named lakes such as Collins Lake and Midfield Lake. The settlement of Calhoun sits centrally, positioned near the junction of several routes including Julian Town Rd and the Calhoun Cutoff. Local history is anchored by the Salem Cem located near Salem Church Rd, providing a specific point of interest for genealogical research. The varied topography, featuring landmarks like Skidl Hill and the Ridgefield area, reflects the agricultural and rural character of the Alabama Black Belt region.
