About this map

Double Springs serves as the hub of this Winston County landscape, dominated by the sprawling reaches of the William B. Bankhead National Forest. This modern record reveals a territory defined by its deep creek valleys and high ridge lines, including the prominent Devils Backbone and the protected waters of the Sipsey Fork of the West Fork Wild and Scenic River. The town itself is anchored by the Winston County Courthouse and the Double Springs Memorial Cem, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with small rural communities like Ashridge and Pleasant Hill.

Genealogists will find significant value in the dense network of family and community cemeteries such as Cornelius Cem, Sutton Cem, and the Liberty Grove Missionary Baptist Church Cem. The terrain is carved by numerous waterways including Clear Creek and Widows Cr, illustrating the hydrological complexity of the Bankhead area. Transportation follows long-established routes, such as Macedonia Rd and Friendship Rd, which connect these isolated homesteads and houses of worship.
