2020 Map of Danleys Crossroads

About this map

Danleys Crossroads sits at the convergence of rural routes in the northern reaches of Coffee County, where the landscape is defined by the headwaters of numerous creeks and scattered agricultural settlements. The terrain is marked by family-named landmarks and local burial grounds, including the Danley's Crossroads Cem and Friendship Community Cem near the Friendship community. Water management is a visible priority across the landscape, seen in the presence of County Lake, Whitman Pond, and Donaldson Pond. These features, along with the meandering courses of Lightwood Knot Cr and Beaverdam Cr, illustrate the drainage patterns of the coastal plain. The road network, including the curiously named Popcorn Ln and Old Boggy Rd, connects these small hamlets to the larger seat at Elba to the southeast, reflecting a century of rural development and land use across the tri-county border area of Crenshaw, Covington, and Coffee.
