About this map

Roanoke and the surrounding rural communities of Randolph Co and Chambers Co are captured here in the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Us-431 corridor, which connects several smaller settlements including Welch, Stroud, and Five Points. Local history is preserved in numerous burial grounds, such as Bethel Cem and Finney Cem, which sit alongside family-named water features like Stricklands Lake and Grady Lake.

The eastern edge of the map features a portion of West Point Lake, while the interior is crisscrossed by an intricate network of creeks, including Meacham Cr and Finley Cr. Notable industrial or former community hubs like Cumbee Mill and Standing Rock appear alongside newer developments like the Wilder Ind Blvd in the north. This survey illustrates the persistent rural character of eastern Alabama, where small crossroads like Fredonia and Finley continue to anchor the region's geography.
