About this map

Haleburg and the rural crossroads of eastern Henry County are defined by a dense network of watercourses and family burial grounds in this 2011 survey. The landscape is carved by the winding paths of Abbie Creek, Sandy Creek, and Foster Creek, which dictate the placement of early settlements and road junctions. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with named cemeteries, ranging from Adoniram Cemetery in the north to Granberry Cemetery and Camp Springs Cemetery in the south, providing a clear spatial record of the area's ancestral hubs.

Small agricultural centers like Balkum and Browns Crossroad sit at vital intersections, while labels such as Neal Ayers Gin Branch and Ethridge Gin Branch point toward the historical cotton-processing economy that once flourished along these tributaries. The road network, including Co Hwy 57 and Hales St, connects these dispersed communities, showing how modern infrastructure has integrated with the established topographic features of the Alabama coastal plain.
