2018 Map of Magnolia

About this map

Marengo County terrain characterizes this 2018 survey, focusing on the rural land north of the settlement of Shiloh. The map reflects a landscape defined by rolling hills and a network of small creeks and branches that drain the interior. As a contemporary topographic study, it provides a precise look at the modern road network and boundary lines within this part of Alabama. The spatial relationship between the few named landmarks and the natural topography illustrates the persistent rural character of the region, where land usage is heavily influenced by the drainage patterns of the local watershed and the historical section lines of the Public Land Survey System.
