2014 Map of Hatton

About this map

Hatton and the surrounding Lawrence County uplands are defined by a complex network of creeks and family-named hollows as they appeared in 2014. The landscape is dotted with small settlements like Wolf Springs, Oak Grove, and Concord, connected by a grid of county roads and the primary artery of AL-157. Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial grounds, including the Roden Cem, Love Cem, and Fergason Cem, many of which sit near the headwaters of local drainages like Masterson Cr and Watches Cr. The geography transitions from the higher elevations of Mill Mtn and Black Ground Mtn in the north toward the flatter expanses of the Moulton Valley in the southeast. Historical crossings are well-documented, with named structures such as Harris Bridge over Town Creek and Lackey Bridge over Pool Cr providing specific points of reference for local history research.
