About this map

Moundville and the rural community of Havana anchor the western edge of this Hale County landscape, where the Black Warrior River valley begins its transition toward the upland forests. The eastern half of the map is dominated by the Talladega National Forest and the Oakmulgee Wildlife Management Area, preserving a landscape of dense woodland drained by Elliotts Creek and Millians Creek.

Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial grounds and sanctuaries scattered across the terrain, including Oak Hill Cem, Salem Ch, and Pleasant Hill Ch Cem. The presence of several Gravel Pits near the northern border suggests local industry, while a major Pipeline corridor cuts across the northwest, marking the modern infrastructure layered over these long-established Alabama settlements and homesteads such as those near Greenleaf Cem.
