2018 Map of Poplar Springs

About this map

William B. Bankhead National Forest covers the northeastern portion of this Winston County landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of creek drainages including Clear Creek and Wildcat Branch. Small communities and agricultural pockets like Poplar Springs, Natis, and Ashbank are connected by a web of county roads that navigate the complex topography. The map reveals a high concentration of rural religious and funerary sites, such as the Old Union Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery and Pine Tucky Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery, which serve as vital markers of local family history. Notable geological features like Bald Rock and the Wildcat Swamp highlight the varied environment between the forested uplands and the Blackwater Creek basin in the south.
