2020 Map of New Site

About this map

New Site and the surrounding Tallapoosa County uplands are characterized by a dense network of small family cemeteries and winding creek valleys. This 2020 survey records the enduring rural landscape of east-central Alabama, where historic burial grounds like Old Salem Cem, Bethlehem Cem, and Hutchinson Cem are scattered among the ridges. The terrain is dominated by high points such as Hog Mtn and an intricate drainage system including Enitachopco Creek and Timbergut Cr. Small communities like Goldville, Perryville, and Cowpens serve as local landmarks along the secondary road network. The map reveals a transition between the Clay Co border and the interior of Tallapoosa County, with private water features like Patterson Lake providing focal points in an area otherwise defined by timbered hills and the natural flow of branches like Dewberry Br and Turkey Br.
