2018 Map of Camden South

About this map

Camden, the county seat of Wilcox County, anchors the northern edge of this landscape, where the town grid meets the rolling topography of southwest Alabama. The area is defined by a dense network of country roads and family-named landmarks, reflecting a long-established rural settlement pattern centered on agricultural and timber lands. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex around Pebble Hill and the Grumpton Hills, drained by numerous watercourses including Pursley Cr, Gravel Cr, and Bones Br. Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the high concentration of burial sites scattered across the township lines, such as Mcintosh Cem, Wheeler Quarter Cem, and the dual location of Mount Carmel Cem and Gravel Hill Cem in the southeast corner. The presence of Dry Forks and the Camden Municipal Airport further illustrates the intersection of small-town commerce and rural industry.
