About this map

Lim Rock and Larkinsville serve as central points in this Jackson County landscape, where the terrain is defined by a series of prominent ridges and coves. The southern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the waters of Guntersville Lake, which reach into the interior via Blue Spring Creek and Yellow Branch. High ground like McCoy Mountain and Nat Mountain separates the valley floors, creating distinct geographic pockets such as Schiffman Cove and Caney Cove.

Genealogists will find a high density of small family and community burial grounds, including the Mount Pleasant, Isbell, and Gold cemeteries. Local history is further grounded by landmarks like Flippo Ford on the Paint Rock River and unique geological features such as the McAllister Sinks. The network of county roads, including Co RD 30 and Co RD 17, connects these scattered settlements and landmarks across the varied topography of the Little Mountain region.
