About this map

Valley Grande serves as a primary reference point in this Alabama landscape, where the rural character of Dallas and Autauga counties is defined by a network of creeks and small settlements. The area around Jones and Vine Hill shows a distribution of community landmarks, including the Pleasant Valley United Methodist Church and its associated cemetery. The topography is shaped by the meandering course of Mulberry Creek and smaller tributaries like Valley Creek, which influenced early transportation and development patterns.

Genealogists and local historians can trace family locations through numerous rural burial grounds such as Pea Ridge Cemetery, Barnes Cemetery, and Welch Cemetery. The presence of Valley Creek Junction and the small settlement of Fremont illustrates the historical importance of the rail-and-road corridors connecting these timber and agricultural lands. Distinctive water features like Rex Waldrop Lake and Lawrence Lake provide further geographic context for the region's 21st-century rural layout.
