2018 Map of Putnam

About this map

Putnam sits at the intersection of AL Highway 69 and Co Hwy 4 in western Alabama, serving as a focal point for this landscape along the border of Marengo and Choctaw counties. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Tombigbee River system, notably around Jacksons Bend and the broader waters of Coffeeville Lake. This 2018 survey reveals a rural character shaped by numerous waterways like Cotalohoma Creek and Sugarbowa Cr, which drain into the river valley. For those researching local families, several established burial grounds are documented, including Putnam Cem, White Cem, and Mount Mariah Cem. The inclusion of the Butler-Choctaw County Airport in the northwest corner highlights the modern infrastructure supporting this timber and river-dependent region.
