About this map

Thorsby and Jemison serve as the primary hubs of activity in this 2014 survey of Chilton County, Alabama. The landscape is heavily marked by small community cemeteries that speak to the area's genealogical depth, including the Thorsby Scandinavian Cem and Thorsby Memorial Cem, reflecting the unique heritage of the local population. A network of rural county roads connects outlying settlements like Union Grove and Collins Chapel, while major transportation corridors bisect the terrain from northwest to southeast.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with Fountainhead Lake, Bentleys Lake, and Luby Gore Lake providing distinct landmarks. Natural drainage is defined by Turkey Cr, Yellowleaf Creek, and Mulberry Cr, which wind through the low hills around Rocky Mount and Chandler Mtn. To the south, the expansion of Clanton is visible through the settlement at Lomax, where the Lomax Cem and New Harmony Cem are located.
