About this map

The Cahaba River winds through this Central Alabama landscape, serving as the eastern boundary for the twin municipalities of Brent and Centreville. This 2011 survey illustrates the modern layout of these historic river towns, including the Howard Cooper Bridge crossing and the concentration of civic life at the Brent Post Office and Centreville Post Office. Beyond the municipal centers, the map documents a network of rural settlements like Duff Settlement, Eoline, and Jamesville, reflecting a pattern of habitation that follows the ridges and creek bottoms between the Talladega National Frst and the river banks.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and burial grounds, including the Weldon Cemetery, James Cemetery, and Duff Cemetery. To the south, the terrain opens into Goodson Bottoms and Cooper Island, where the river's influence on the local geography is most pronounced. The map also identifies regional administrative hubs such as the Oakmulgee District Ranger Office, highlighting the area's connection to the surrounding timberlands.
