About this map

Marion serves as the focal point of this Perry County landscape, where the historic campus of Judson Coll and the extensive Marion Cem define the southern settled area. The terrain transitions from the concentrated street grid of town—featuring W Green St and E Lafayette St—to the deeply dissected hills and hollows of the north and east. The eastern edge is dominated by the Talladega National Forest, with the Cahaba River carving a winding path through the timberland.

Rural life is marked by numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Campbellite Cem, Mt Nebo Cem, and Scarborough Cem, which are tucked away along winding routes like CR-7 and CR-29. Significant conservation and industrial activity is evident at the Marion Fish Hatchery Number One and Marion Fish Hatchery Number Two near Old Town Cr. This 2014 survey documents a region where agricultural heritage, institutional history, and natural resource management meet.
