About this map

The Cahaba River winds through the heart of Perry County, Alabama, shaping a landscape defined by its floodplains and tributary creeks. In the vicinity of Radford and Suttle, the topography is characterized by the meandering river path and the intricate drainage networks of Waters Cr, Dry Cr, and Silver Cr. This 2018 survey reveals a rural infrastructure where family and community heritage is preserved in numerous burial grounds, including Bethany Cem, Suttle Cem, and Waters Cem.

A network of local routes such as Perryville Church Rd and Herman Richardson Rd connects these settlements and historic sites. The map documents the persistent rural character of the region, where land use is dictated by the river's bend and the elevation changes between the bottoms and the surrounding ridges. These features provide a clear view of the settlement patterns and geographic boundaries established in t19n r9e and adjacent townships.
