About this map

The Old Indian Treaty Boundary slices diagonally across this portion of Clarke County, marking a historic line of demarcation through the Alabama timberlands. This landscape is defined by the winding drainage of Reedy Creek and Salt Creek, which carve through the terrain near the rural settlements of Rockville and Alma. Much of the southern reaches of the quadrangle are dedicated to conservation within the Fred T Stimpson State Game Sanctuary, where the creeks flow toward the Tombigbee River system.

A network of country churches serves the local community, including Old Mt Sinai Ch and Mt Sinai No 1 Ch in the northwest, and Perry Chapel and St Matthews Ch further east. These sites, along with several unnamed cemeteries, provide important points of reference for genealogists. Industry is represented by a lone Clay Pit near the western edge, while landmarks like Roundtop Hill offer topographic relief in this wooded region.
