2018 Map of Harrisburg

About this map

Harrisburg and the surrounding woodlands of the Talladega National Forest define this 2018 study of the Bibb County and Perry County border. The landscape is characterized by the winding path of the Cahaba River and its numerous tributaries, including Potato Patch Cr and Mill Cr. Family and community history is preserved through several rural burial grounds such as Perkins Cem, Paynes Cem, and Stewart Cem, alongside the Mount Gilead Cem. The map illustrates a region where small settlements like Abercrombie and Adler are connected by a network of timber and forest roads like Fire Tower Rd and Harrisburg Rd, reflecting a landscape dedicated to conservation and forestry. Notable landforms such as James Bottom and Hickory Hollow provide specific geographical context for local genealogists and researchers tracking land ownership and traditional place names.
