About this map

Hackleburg serves as the central hub of this 2018 survey, situated where the ridge of the Tennessee Valley Divide dictates the local topography. This landscape is defined by its numerous family-named cemeteries and small rural settlements like Duketon, Nix, and Wiginton, reflecting a deep genealogical footprint across the Franklin and Marion County border. The terrain is deeply dissected by a dense network of branches and creeks, including Bear Creek and its many tributaries like Abison Br and Nix Br.

Infrastructure like Military Bridge and Prices Bridge provides vital crossings over these winding waterways, while landmarks such as Bailey Bend and Horseshoe Bend highlight the meandering nature of the local drainage. For those tracing family roots or local history, the map provides precise locations for numerous burial grounds, from the Cochran Family Cem to the Burnt House Cem, alongside small historic sites such as Nix Mill.
