About this map

Warriorstand and its surrounding rural landscapes in Macon County are defined by a dense network of creek systems and small family or community burial grounds. The area is heavily intersected by watercourses such as Opintlocco Cr, Big Swamp, and Calebee Cr, which dictated the early settlement patterns and road placements like Co RD 10 and Streetman Rd. This 2020 survey provides a detailed view of the localized geography where early Alabama history is still visible through its cemeteries.

Genealogists and local historians can trace several significant sites, including Warrior Stand Cem, Sweet Pilgrim Cem, and Antioch Cem. The topography rises toward Pace Hill in the east, while the western portion is drained by the Persimmon Cr and Tallassah Cr. These features, along with the numerous church-affiliated and community cemeteries like Magnolia Cem and Chapple Cem, offer a clear picture of the enduring rural character and lineage of this portion of eastern Alabama.
