1980 Map of Hogglesville

About this map

The Talladega National Forest dominates this west-central Alabama landscape, where the Perry, Hale, and Bibb county lines converge. The settlement of Hogglesville and nearby Wateroak are centers of community life defined by a dense network of country churches and family burial grounds. Waterways like Fivemile Creek and Sparks Creek carve through the wooded terrain, providing natural boundaries for timber and agricultural tracts. A notable concentration of spiritual landmarks, including Morgan Tabernacle, Faith Chapel, and Bethany Ch, highlights the cultural significance of these small crossroads communities. This 1980 update to the mid-century topographic data records the enduring rural character of the region, specifically noting scattered industrial features like a Gravel Pit and the small hamlet of North Perry.
