1980 Map of Oakmulgee

About this map

Talladega National Forest dominates this landscape in central Alabama, where the dense woodland of the Oakmulgee District is dissected by a network of drainage systems. The topography is defined by the winding paths of Beaverdam Creek and Oakmulgee Creek, which are fed by numerous smaller tributaries like Holsombeck Creek and Boiling Mill Creek. This area shows a pattern of rural settlement clustered around established houses of worship and small family burial grounds, reflecting the deep-rooted community ties of Perry and Bibb Counties during the late twentieth century.
