About this map

Munford and the industrial corridors of the Norfolk Southern railway define this landscape on the border of Calhoun and Talladega counties. The map captures a mix of residential growth in Oxford and Hobson City alongside the deep-rooted rural settlements of Jenifer and Bethlehem. A significant historical landmark, the Coldwater Covered Bridge, sits near Coldwater, while the extensive Talladega National Forest occupies the southern and eastern portions of the sheet, where Kentuck Mtn rises above the foothills.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with the winding path of Choccolocco Creek and several managed water bodies like Grants Pond, Henderson Lake, and Stewarts Lake. For genealogists, the map identifies local burial sites such as Antioch Cem, Coldwater Cem, and Shiloh Cem. The transition from the developed streets of Anniston and Bynum to the creek valleys and ridge lines offers a look at the region's mid-2010s infrastructure and natural boundaries.
