2017 Map of Quitman

About this map

The town of Quitman anchors the southern portion of this Cleburne County region, where the landscape transitions from established agricultural lands to the prominent ridges of Bettis Mtn and White Oak Mtn. The northern edge is dominated by the sprawling reaches of Greers Ferry Lake, including Goff Cove and Bean Point. This 2017 survey reveals a complex network of waterways, with Cadron Cr and its many tributaries like Beaver Cr and Yellow Bank Cr carving through the terrain. Smaller settlements such as Pearson and Crossroads serve as local hubs, connected by a dense web of rural routes like Quitman Rd and Bettis Mountain Rd. For the local historian, the map preserves the location of the Aldridge Cem and several distinctive hollows, including Sweet Suck Hollow and Sulphur Springs Hollow, which point to the area's older geographic nomenclature.
