About this map

Demopolis serves as the focal point of this Marengo County landscape, situated where the Black Warrior River and Tombigbee River converge. The town's grid expands from the riverfront, reaching toward neighborhoods like Baptist Hill and Rockcut. The surrounding territory is defined by the winding hydrology of the rivers, marked by specific navigation points such as Webbs Bend and Twelvemile Bend, and numerous river bars including Negro Heel Bar and Haunted Point Bar.

Genealogical interest is high across the rural stretches of Greene and Hale Counties, where small settlements like Birdeye and Alfalfa appear alongside a network of family and community burial grounds. Maps of this era detail the placement of Old Green Oak Cem, Logan Cem, and Arington Cem, providing a precise record of local heritage. Industrial and recreational footprints are evident at Spocari and the Demopolis Country Club Lake, while the vast Demopolis Lake dominates the central river valley.
