2014 Map of Fruithurst

About this map

Fruithurst and the surrounding Cleburne County countryside are defined by a network of rural roads and historical landmarks that trace the settlement patterns of northeastern Alabama. The landscape is dotted with ancestral sites such as Upper Cane Creek Cem, Harmony Grove Cem, and Mt Olive Cem, providing critical touchpoints for genealogical research. The Tallapoosa River winds through the southern portion of the area, while smaller waterways like Cane Cr and Muscadine Creek carve through the terrain. Evidence of older transit routes persists in the form of the Old Georgia Rd, which runs north of the modern corridor. From the community of Ai to the larger hubs of Heflin and Edwardsville, this survey documents the persistent rural character of the region, including notable landforms like Mains Gap and local water bodies such as Laminack Lake.
