About this map

Uniontown and Faunsdale anchor the central portion of this West Alabama survey, where the boundaries of Hale, Marengo, and Perry Counties meet. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Cottonwood Cr and Greer Cr, which separate the agricultural highlands from the lower creek basins. Smaller settlements such as Rabbityard, Siddonsville, and Freetown reflect the historic community patterns of the Black Belt region, often centered around family burial grounds and small churches.

Genealogists will find an exceptional density of rural cemeteries, including Rosemount Cem, Holy Cross Cem, and Saint Michaels Cem. The infrastructure follows the traditional east-west corridor of Us-80 and the older alignments of Old 80, which provided vital transit between regional market centers. Water features like Lake Roseland and Oscar Cobb Lake dot the terrain, while unnamed farm roads connect the outlying homesteads and timberlands.
