2018 Map of Jemison West

About this map

Mahan Creek and its many tributaries, including Mohorn Cr and Sam Br, carve through this section of Chilton County, defining a landscape of small agricultural settlements and rural communities. The map serves as a vital record for genealogists, documenting numerous family and community burial grounds such as Crumpton Cem, Jones Cem, and Shiloh Cem. The density of these cemeteries around crossroads like Poseys Crossroads and Mars Hill suggests a long-established network of small-scale farming homesteads and parish life. To the south, the terrain slopes toward Mulberry Cr, while the eastern edge is marked by the growth of Jemison and Thorsby. This survey captures the intricate system of county roads, such as Co RD 42 and Co RD 50, that have historically linked these dispersed Alabama townships.
