2011 Map of Oak Level

About this map

Oak Level and the surrounding rural landscape of Cleburne County are defined by a complex network of creeks and small crossroads communities. Several named burial grounds, including Roe Cemetery, Mars Hill Cemetery, Mount Perry Cemetery, and Bethel Cemetery, provide significant points of interest for genealogists tracing local families. The terrain is deeply carved by waterways such as Terrapin Creek, Mountain Creek, and Muscadine Creek, which shaped the settlement patterns of clusters like Piney Woods, Bethel, and Coldwater. In the northern reaches, Terrapin Creek Lake Number 22 stands as a notable water feature amidst the timber and farmland. The road system, dominated by county routes like Co RD-40 and Co RD-31, connects these isolated points of habitation, illustrating the persistent rural character of this Alabama-Georgia border region in the early twenty-first century.
