About this map

Lubbub Creek and its various branches, including Little Lubbub Creek and Puckett Branch, form the primary drainage system through this rural Pickens County landscape. The terrain is defined by a dense network of secondary roads and small, established communities that reflect the area's agricultural and social history. Settlements like Cunningham, Dillburg, and Hickory are distributed along the ridges, while family and community markers such as Hopewell Hill Cem and Unity Cem offer vital clues for genealogical research.

Water management is evident in the presence of several reservoirs, including Pates Lake, Windles Lake, and the specifically named P M Johnston Lake Number Two. These features, alongside the numerous creeks like Seneca Creek and Cow Creek, illustrate how the local topography has been utilized for both small-scale industry and recreation. The Public Land Survey System grids for Townships 21 and 22 South provide the underlying structure for these land tracts, anchoring the locations of places like Lois Spring and Beasley within the broader Alabama survey record.
