About this map

Snowdoun and Pintlala anchor a landscape defined by its network of family and community burial grounds, marking the deep ancestral roots throughout this portion of Montgomery County. The terrain is characterized by a high density of small water bodies and creek systems, including Pintlala Creek and Ramer Creek, which are surrounded by numerous named lakes such as Sims Lake Number One, Faulkner Lake, and Lake Edna. This abundance of private water features suggest a modern era of localized land management and recreation.

Transportation corridors like Hobbie Rd and Norman Bridge Rd connect the primary settlements of Tharin, Canaan, and Le Grand. The map serves as a vital genealogical resource, documenting numerous cemeteries including Strokes Cem, Shackelford Cem, and Sankey Cem. From the community at Sprague in the south to the northern reaches of the Twin Lakes area, the sheet illustrates the enduring rural character of central Alabama.
