2014 Map of Myrtlewood South

About this map

Myrtlewood sits at the northern edge of this Marengo County landscape, where the local road network of Al-114 and Al-69 connects small communities across a terrain defined by many winding waterways. The settlement pattern is largely rural, characterized by small clusters like Campground, Half Acre, and Geneva. The area is notably dense with burial sites and centers of worship, such as the Geneva Presbyterian Church Cem, James Chapel Cem, and the Beaver Creek Baptist Cem. These locations, alongside the Community Cem and Howell Cem, provide significant landmarks for those tracing local family histories. The landscape is carved by a complex drainage system including Beaver Creek, Mill Cr, and Landrums Cr, which flow through the elevations of the Reabert Hills. An Iron Bridge crossing Beaver Creek further highlights the historical infrastructure connecting these timbered and agricultural spaces.
