2011 Map of Miller

About this map

Rembert and Miller anchor this survey of rural Marengo County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of creek branches and family burial grounds. The settlement of Octagon sits in the eastern reaches, adjacent to the Octagon Baptist Cemetery and the waters of Wilson Creek. This 2011 map documents a transition in the local infrastructure, with modern roads like Sunflower Ln and Honeysuckle Rd threading through traditional agricultural lands. Small community hubs are evidenced by centers like Calvary and numerous historical burial sites including Zion Cemetery and Bethlehem Cemetery. The drainage patterns are intricate, with Little Beaver Creek and Cane Creek carving out the terrain between the small unincorporated communities, illustrating the persistent rural character of the Alabama Black Belt region in the early 21st century.
