About this map

Lewis Smith Lake dominates the northwestern portion of this 2018 survey, where the Sipsey Fork carves through the landscape of the Winston and Cullman County border. The interior terrain is defined by a dense network of hollows and ridges, including Blevins Hollow, John R Hollow, and the notable elevation of Hammonds Shinbone Mtn. This period shows a rural landscape where small settlements like Cold Springs and Wilburn serve as local hubs, connected by a winding system of county roads.

Genealogists and local historians will find several well-marked burial grounds, such as Addington Chapel Cem and Antioch Cem, which point to established community anchors. Unusual landmarks like the Banking Grounds near Leeth Hill and the Rocky Springs Airpark reflect the diverse uses of the land, from traditional agriculture and forestry to specialized aviation. The presence of Parker Bridge near Powellville highlights the critical crossings required by the numerous creeks, such as Mill Cr and Boyd Cr, that feed the larger river system.
