Nearest Communities to Achackwaithle,
Listed County-By-County

The purpose of this page is to identify those communities that are closest to Achackwaithle, on a County-by-County basis. To explain further, let's use the example from the Genealogy Helper Page for Achackwaithle:

We have great-grandparents who lived in a small community in the southeast corner of their home county. During their lives, most doctors and hospitals were in the next county to the east. Almost all of the nearby churches and cemeteries were in the county to the south.

When doing our research, we make it a practice to expand our search by looking in neighboring counties in addition to the county in which they lived:  their home county contained property and probate records; the county to the east contained birth and death records; the county to the south contained their burial records. If we hadn't checked the neighboring counties, we would have missed many valuable sources of information.

Please note that when we give a distance, it's a 'straight-line' distance from Achackwaithle.<1>

If you're researching your genealogy, we hope that the following information helps.

Although our information shows that the community of Achackwaithle is historic,<2> it would have been located within present day Franklin County.

<1>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Achackwaithle) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Achackwaithle. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 29.8252, Longitude: -85.0166       In this case, the coordinates for Achackwaithle have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).

<3>Our data comes from many sources and some sources are more dependable than others. When we add communities to our Gazetteer, we try to verify that we have the correct location for the community.
