2018 Map of Trimble

About this map

Lewis Smith Lake dominates the southern reaches of this landscape, its winding fingers of water carving deep into the Cullman County hills. This 2018 survey reveals a modern rural structure where historic communities like Trimble, Loretto, and Dodge City serve as anchors for a dense network of local county roads. The complex shoreline of the lake creates a series of named points and landmarks, including Catalina Point, Speegle Point, and Goat Island, highlighting the transformation of the local terrain since the lake's creation. For genealogists and local historians, the map is particularly useful for identifying established landmarks such as the Sharon Grove Ch and numerous burial grounds like Shedd Cem, Valley Springs Cem, and Beech Grove Cem, which remain as permanent fixtures in an evolving landscape.
