2020 Map of Society Hill

About this map

Society Hill serves as a central point in this part of Macon and Lee counties, where rural land patterns are defined by a network of creeks and family cemeteries. Small, localized burial grounds like Cobbs Cem, Whatley Cem, and Holt Cem are scattered across the landscape, providing essential clues for genealogists tracking early families in the area. The terrain is deeply carved by water, with Opintlocco Cr and Uchee Cr creating a complex drainage system that influenced road placement and property lines. To the north, Whatley Cross Road marks a historic junction, while the presence of Engineering Farm Pond and Talbert Lake reflects the managed water resources of the modern era. The map documents a quiet, traditional Alabama landscape where rural routes like Old Columbus Rd and Co Rd 43 connect long-standing homesteads and communal landmarks such as Saint Paul Cem.
