About this map

Snowdoun and the surrounding Montgomery County countryside appear here in the early 21st century, defined by a network of rural settlements and family-named landmarks. The landscape is dotted with several significant local burial grounds, including Woodland Hills Cem, Shackelford Cem, and Sankey Cem, providing essential markers for genealogical research in this part of Alabama. The area's hydrology is dominated by the meandering Pintlala Creek and Ramer Creek, alongside numerous private impoundments such as Sims Lake Number One and Hall Lake.

Transportation corridors like Mobile Hwy (US-31) and Us-331 anchor the small communities of Pintlala, Tharin, and Sprague. These routes connect dispersed residential areas like Hunting Downs and Pine Needles to the broader region. The map reveals a transition from traditional agricultural land use toward more modern rural subdivisions, while still preserving the names of old roads such as Federal Rd and Old McGehee Rd that hint at the region's historical transit patterns.
