About this map

Sand Mountain dominates this portion of DeKalb County, where the plateau landscape is carved by a network of creeks including South Sauty Creek and Town Creek. The area maintains a rural crossroads character, anchored by the larger communities of Fyffe and Rainsville along the eastern edge. Local history is deeply etched into the land via numerous family and community landmarks, such as Old Sauty Mill Bridge and Guest Bridge.

The distribution of small settlements like Moores Crossroads, Luttrell, and Ten Broeck illustrates a settlement pattern typical of this upland region. Genealogists will find significant value in the mapped cemeteries, including Warren Cem, Mount Zion Cem, and Greens Chapel Cem. The hydrology is particularly detailed, showing how the S Fork Blackoak Cr and Rockhouse Br drain the high ground between these long-established agricultural communities.
