2024 Map of Skinnerton

About this map

Skinnerton and the nearby community of Riley anchor this southern Alabama landscape along the border of Monroe and Conecuh counties. The topography is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Murder Creek, the West Sepulga River, and Flat Creek, which carve through the wooded terrain. This region is particularly significant for genealogical research, as it contains numerous historic religious and burial sites that serve as the primary landmarks for local families. Landmarks such as Midway Baptist Church Cem, Asbury Methodist Church Cem, and Mount Pleasant Methodist Church Cem are positioned along the county roads. The mapping of House of God Church Keith Dominion Cem and the Lone Star Cem further documents the scattered nature of early settlement patterns in this rural corridor.
