2011 Map of Henagar

About this map

Guntersville Lake and the jagged inlet of Coon Gulf dominate the northern landscape of this DeKalb County region. The terrain transition is marked by geological features like Coon Gap and The Gorge, with the plateaus above supporting a network of rural communities including Henagar, Pisgah, and Rosalie. For genealogists, the map is particularly rich in family history landmarks, documenting sites such as Nelson Cemetery, Friendship Cemetery, and Hudgins Cemetery. Settlement patterns are tightly tied to the drainage of Bryant Creek and its many tributaries. In the southeast, the Henagar Post Office serves as a central hub near the intersection of several county roads, while Morris Mill and the area near Gilberts Lake indicate the long-standing localized infrastructure of these upland communities during the early 21st century.
