2011 Map of Wilsonville

About this map

Lay Lake dominates the central landscape of this Alabama quadrangle, its sprawling backwaters defining the social and economic geography of the river valley. The town of Wilsonville sits at the northern edge, marked by the Wilsonville Post Office and Wilsonville Cemetery, while the small settlement of Fayetteville anchors the southeastern corner. The map reveals a shoreline lined with recreation and seasonal residences, such as Shelby Shores, Carleton Point, and Indian Shoals. Historic family and community sites are well-preserved in the record, including the Fort Williams Cemetery near the lake's edge and the inland Kahatchee Cemetery. Notable water control and access points like Goodner Dam, Cleitts Dam, and Perkins Ferry illustrate how the community has historically interacted with the Coosa River system. From the heights of Katala Hills to the residential clusters at Campbells Crossroads, the map provides a clear picture of twentieth-century rural development and lakeside life.
