2020 Map of Kellyton

About this map

Socapatoy and Kellyton center this portion of the Alabama landscape, where the headwaters of numerous creeks begin their descent toward the Tallapoosa River. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Socapatoy Creek, Elkahatchee Cr, and Oakachoy Cr, which carve through the countryside. Several small settlements and rural crossroads like Keyno, Bradford, and Ray are connected by a network of county roads and AL Highway 9. The map is particularly rich for genealogical research, documenting numerous burial sites such as Doctor Kellys Private Cem, New Shiloh Cem, and Maxwell Cem. Smaller water bodies like Swan Lake, Walls Lake, and Jordan Lake are scattered across the quadrangle, indicating the localized drainage patterns of this central Alabama region. The proximity to Alexander City at the southeastern edge suggests the gradual transition from quiet rural acreage toward more developed municipal centers.
