2011 Map of Kellyton

About this map

Kellyton serves as a central hub in this Tallapoosa County landscape, marked by the Kellyton Post Office and a network of county roads including Co HWY-77 and Co HWY-49. The area is defined by numerous family and community burial grounds, such as the Socapatoy Cemetery, Bradford Cemetery, and the Doctor Kellys Private Cemetery, which provide significant touchstones for genealogical research. The terrain is intricately carved by a dense drainage system, where Socapatoy Creek and Little Socapatoy Creek flow toward the larger Elkahatchee Creek. Smaller settlements like Bradford, Socapatoy, and Ray are interspersed with agricultural features like Brooks Farm Pond Dam and Ann Jordan Lake Dam. This 2011 survey reflects the rural character of the region, where historical landmarks like New Shiloh Cemetery and names like 5 Star Plantation persist alongside modern local routes, illustrating the continued significance of land ownership and local heritage in central Alabama.
