About this map

The border of Cleburne and Randolph Counties bisects the northern reaches of this landscape, where rural communities like Micaville and Pine Tuckey developed along a network of winding roads. This 2018 survey documents a region defined by its ridge-and-valley topography, culminating in the elevation of Plunkett Mtn. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the sprawling fingers of the R L Harris Reservoir, which altered the natural course of local waterways like Sandy Cr and Sailor Cr.

For genealogists and local researchers, the map preserves the exact locations of burial grounds such as Corinth Cem, Fowler Cem, and Valley Grove Cem. Small hamlets and named intersections, including Swagg, Milner, and Foster Crossroad, illustrate the enduring settlement pattern of eastern Alabama. Infrastructure like Lee Bridge and Foster Bridge provides context for how these communities navigated the complex hydrology of the Ketchapedrakee Cr and its tributaries.
