2018 Map of Hatchechubbee

About this map

Hatchechubbee and the surrounding rural landscapes of Russell County are defined by a network of creeks and small family cemeteries that trace the region's agricultural history. The settlement of Uchee sits in the northern section, surrounded by several memorial sites including Good Hope Cem, Joshua Cem, and the Walker Williamson Cem. These burial grounds, often tucked near old crossroads or waterway bends, offer significant data for genealogists tracking early Alabama families. The terrain is deeply carved by drainage systems like Hatchechubbee Creek and Little Cowikee Cr, which likely influenced the historical placement of roads and farmsteads. To the south, the community of Wende and landmarks like Lake Morgloba indicate a landscape where natural topography and man-made water features coexist within the traditional land divisions of the Public Land Survey System.
