About this map

Tuskegee Institute National Historic Site and the adjacent Tuskegee Univ campus anchor this detailed landscape in Macon County. The geography is deeply intertwined with American aviation and educational history, featuring the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site at Moton Field Municipal Airport. To the east, the terrain transitions into the protected woodlands of the Tuskegee National Forest, drained by Choctahatchee Creek and Chewacla Creek.

Genealogists can locate several local burial grounds, including Greenwood Cem near the university and the more rural Rush Cem to the south. Small settlements like Chehaw in the north and water bodies such as City Lake and Fin and Feather Lake provide further context to the regional development. The road network, including AL Highway 81 and Chappie James Ave, connects the historic urban center to the surrounding agricultural and forest lands.
