2018 Map of Hackneyville

About this map

The Hackneyville community serves as the central point for this detailed mapping of the Tallapoosa and Clay County borderlands. The landscape is defined by its deep genealogical roots, evidenced by the high density of family and community burial grounds including Old Providence Cem, Dillard Cem, and the Hackneyville Presbyterian Cem. Settlement patterns follow the ridge lines and creek valleys, with Pinkneyville and Cleveland Crossroads marking established points of local commerce and connection. The hydrology is dominated by numerous winding waterways like Oaktasasi Creek, Little Hillabee Creek, and the smaller Tanyard Br, which flow through the dissected terrain. Features like Denny Lake and the Hillabee Campground Cem reflect the long-standing recreational and spiritual gathering places central to this rural Alabama district in the modern era.
