Moundville anchors the northwestern corner of this survey, where the residential street grid transitions into the rural landscapes of northern Hale County. The area is defined by its deep genealogical roots, evidenced by a high density of named burial grounds including Oak Hill Cemetery, Carthage Cemetery, and Lewis Cemetery near the northern border. Further south, the small settlements of Phipps and Havana are situated amidst a network of winding roads like Beckom Bottom Rd and Indian Hill Rd. The landscape is naturally segmented by several watercourses, most notably Elliotts Creek and Gabriel Creek, which have influenced the placement of early homesteads and cemeteries like Greenleaf Cemetery and Woods Cemetery. This map provides a clear view of the regional road network as it stood in the early 21st century, connecting historic family centers and community landmarks.
