2020 Map of Minter

About this map

Minter and Farmersville anchor this rural landscape in Alabama's Black Belt, where the boundary between Dallas, Lowndes, and Wilcox counties converges. The map reveals a high concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as Purefoy Cem, McColough Cem, and Soles Cem, which offer significant value for genealogists tracing local lineage. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, including the winding Cedar Cr and Dry Cedar Cr, alongside several smaller tributaries like Wagontongue Cr and Honey Cr. These streams carve through the countryside, dictating the placement of historic routes such as Farmersville Rd and Old Barge Mill Rd. The presence of both Snow Hill Cem and Old Snow Hill Cem suggests the shifting center of a local community over generations, while the inclusion of R Cullpepper Lake highlights modern water management and property landmarks in this agricultural region.
