About this map

Huntsville and its northeastern fringes are defined by a complex landscape of sharp ridges and winding waterways. The Flint River meanders through the central terrain, anchoring historic sites like Bell Factory and Wortham Mill Island. This area in Madison County is dotted with numerous family cemeteries, such as the Acklin-Derrick Cem and the Steger-Ormond Cem, which provide a detailed record of the families who settled this region of Alabama.

Uplands like Lewis Mtn and Nance Mtn rise above the agricultural flats, creating deep hollows such as Stillhouse Hollow and Branon Hollow. Small communities and landmarks like Maysville, Ryland, and the Saint Clair Store are connected by a network of rural roads that follow the natural contours of the land. The presence of specialized sites like McCaleb Mill and Antioch Primitive Baptist Cem speaks to the industrial and religious history that shaped these communities north of the city.
