About this map

Cleveland and Allgood serve as the primary hubs in this section of Blount County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Locust Fork and its numerous tributaries. The geography is marked by distinctive elevations such as Cornelius Mountain, Peach Orchard Ridge, and Hunt Mountain, which guide the settlement patterns between the valley floors and higher ridges. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with family-named landmarks and resting places, including the Greens Chapel Cemetery, Chitwood Cemetery, and Brown-Hudson Cemetery.

Agricultural and industrial history is evident through the presence of the Lynn Haven Dairy near Cleveland and the Hendrick Mill located along the Hendrick Mill Branch. Smaller communities like Deavers Town, Rosa, and Easley are connected by a network of local roads such as Tuscaloosa Pike and Cheney Valley Rd. The water systems, including the Blackburn Fork Little Warrior River and Calvert Prong Little Warrior River, illustrate the hydraulic complexity of this North Alabama region.
