About this map

Francis Mill and Martins Mill anchor this part of Alabama, where the landscape is defined by the winding paths of Cane Creek and Acker Creek as they flow toward the waters of Logan Martin Lake. The map reveals a cluster of settlements including Macon, Mitchellville, and Mount Olive, each connected by a network of established roads like Jackson Trace Rd and Fombys Ferry Rd.

Genealogists can find significant local history in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, such as Green Cemetery, Creswell Cemetery, and Pattons Chapel Cemetery. The infrastructure of the area is highlighted by several water management features, including the Blue Eye Creek Watershed Dam Number 1 and McGouirk Dam. From the Macon Post Office in the north to the Refuge Post Office in the south, this survey provides a clear view of the rural communities and hydrological systems that characterize the region.
