2018 Map of Clanton East

About this map

Clanton serves as the focal point for this survey of Chilton County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of Walnut Creek and its many tributaries. The area exhibits a dense concentration of local history markers, particularly seen in the numerous family and community burial grounds such as the Aldridge Family Cem and Oak Grove Church of God Cem. The map tracks the interstate corridor south through settlements like Falakto and Cooper toward Verbena, illustrating the infrastructure that connects these rural communities. Notable water features include Shelton Barkley Lake and T J Stewart Lake, which sit alongside the extensive drainage systems of Chestnut Cr and Cargle Cr. The presence of the Chilton County Airport near Chilton County Memorial Gardens indicates the modernization of the county seat's outskirts during this era.
