2014 Map of New Lexington

About this map

New Lexington anchors this rural landscape at the border of Fayette and Tuscaloosa Counties, where the drainage basins of the North River and Binion Cr meet. The area is defined by a series of small agricultural and residential nodes, including New Hope and Concord, connected by a network of county roads like CR-12 and Us-43. The map is particularly rich in family-named sites, indicating a long-standing community tied to the land. Numerous burial grounds such as Willingham Cem, Vick and Kelley Cem, and Patterson Cem are scattered across the terrain, often located near small water bodies like Barnett Lake or the Poe Lakes. The presence of several churches, including El Bethel Cem and Macedonia Cem, further highlights the cultural geography of this section of the Deep South in the early 21st century.
