1948 Map of Mud Creek

About this map

The Cumberland Plateau and Cumberland Mountain dominate this Jackson County landscape, characterized by complex drainage systems and isolated settlements. In the mid-century, the community of Skyline serves as a local hub, supported by the Skyline Sch and Skyline Ch. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named hollows and points, such as Goshen Hollow and Clemmons Point, reflecting the genealogical deep roots of the area. A high concentration of cemeteries including Sanders Cem, Proctor Cem, and Bynum Cem are scattered across the coves and flats. Local infrastructure is evidenced by the Pipeline crossing the northern terrain and the network of roads connecting small settlements like Cornelison and Kyles. The topographical detail captures natural landmarks like The Buzzard Roost and the dramatic drop of The Slipoff, providing a clear view of the rural Alabama uplands before modern development.
