2014 Map of Jacksonville East

About this map

Talladega National Forest dominates the central and eastern portions of this quadrangle, preserving a landscape defined by the ridgelines of Chimney Mtn and Choccolocco Mtn. This 2014 survey documents the eastern outskirts of Jacksonville and the rural communities of Rabbittown, White Plains, and Holley Crossroads. A concentration of family-named cemeteries such as McCain Cem, Boozer Cem, and Williamson Little Cem underscores the deep-rooted settlement history along the valleys of Cottaquilla Cr and Nances Creek. The map provides an intricate look at local hydrology, from the Shelton Lakes to numerous natural springs like Roberts Spring and Watsons House Spring, illustrating how water sources influenced the placement of early homesteads and current road networks like Al-9 and Al-21.
