About this map

Springville and Saint Clair Springs anchor this landscape where the ridges of the Appalachians descend into central Alabama. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent elevations including Blount Mtn, Jones Mtn, and Saint Clair Mtn, which create natural corridors for water and transport. Hydrological features are abundant, from the sprawling Inland Lake in the northwest to the localized Herrings Big Spring and Hickman Lake near Odenville.

Genealogists will find value in the documentation of family-named landmarks and resting places such as Hooper Cem, Fuller Cem, and Mardis Cem. The rural infrastructure of the early 21st century is visible through a network of county roads like Jones Chapel Rd and Washington Valley RD, alongside older landmarks like Goodwins Mill. This survey illustrates the settlement patterns following the natural flow of Big Canoe Creek and the Blackburn Fork Little Warrior River.
