About this map

Frog Mountain and the surrounding ridgelines of Cherokee County define this area of Alabama, where small rural communities are connected by a dense network of county roads. The settlement pattern is anchored by locations like Ellisville, Bomar, and Old Coloma, while aviation infrastructure is represented by the Headquarters Airport and Centre-Piedmont-Cherokee County Regional Airport.

Genealogists can find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including Moshat Cem, Hebron Cem, and Lebanon Cem. The landscape is etched with numerous watercourses such as Terrapin Creek and Cowan Creek, which have likely shaped local land use for generations. Distinctive natural landmarks like Wolfden Flats and McCauley Mtn provide clear orientation points for those studying the physical history and property boundaries of this upland region.
