2014 Map of Honoraville

About this map

Honoraville and Midway anchor this section of the Alabama coastal plain along the border of Butler and Crenshaw counties. The landscape is defined by a dense network of minor waterways and named ponds, such as Ropers Pond, Lake Jane, and Sims Pond, which drain the varied topography of Center Ridge. A clear pattern of rural development is visible through numerous family-named landmarks and local transit routes. Genealogists can identify key burial sites like Damascus Cem near the Damascus settlement and Black Rock Cem to the east. The terrain is crisscrossed by established local roads including Hickory Grove Rd and Center Ridge Rd, which connect scattered homesteads to the primary thoroughfare, Al-10. Drainage features like Skipper Mill Br and Hatchee-Br suggest a history of small-scale water management and land use typical of the region's agricultural past.
