About this map

Haleyville anchors the northwestern corner of this map, where the terrain begins to drop toward the headwaters of the Buttahatchee River. This part of Winston County is characterized by a high concentration of family-named landmarks and small crossroads communities such as Donaldson Mill, DeFoor, and Needmore. The hydrological network is well-defined by the Right Fork Clear Creek and Little Clear Creek, which feed into various impoundments like Elliotts Lake and W K Wilson Lake.

Genealogical interest is found in the numerous rural burial grounds scattered across the landscape, including Ayers Cemetery near Delmar and the remote Old Lovett Cemetery along Tanyard Creek. The eastern portion of the sheet is dominated by the deeply cut valleys of Bull Gulf and Frost Gulf, highlighting the transition from the plateau into the creek-carved ravines. Infrastructure like the Boar Tush Lookout Tower and the Delmar Post Office provides fixed points of reference for the local civic landscape in the early 21st century.
