2018 Map of Masterson Mill

About this map

Masterson Mill sits within the drainage of the Clear Fork, anchor to a landscape of deep hollows and named ridges in northern Alabama. The terrain is defined by its numerous natural springs and sinks, including Horton Spring, Poplar Spring, and Spout Spring, which feed into the wider Big Nance Creek system. This 2018 survey reveals a settlement pattern of small communities like Mountain Home and Terrytown that have persisted around significant elevations like Mackey Mtn and Summerhouse Mtn. Genealogists will find several rural burial grounds documented, such as Dossey Cem and Thompson Cem, alongside family-named landmarks like John R Bridge and the Jack Locke Bridge. The presence of Moulton City Lake and the Moulton Valley area shows the modern expansion of the county seat northward, while names like Letson Settlement and Mount Moriah reflect the area’s longstanding agricultural roots.
