Talk:Sand Mountain (Alabama)

message: Sand Mountain is one of the last places in the country with churches which still use Sacred Harp singing in their Sunday morning church services
This seems to say not only that Sacred Harp singing happens in church services in Sound Mountain and elsewhere, but it happens less than it once did and is dying out. I don't see any source for any of that. The reference is just to a map of Sacred Harp singings. For anyone who doesn't know, a singing is most defintely not a church service, and I'm not aware that Sacred Harp singing regularly happens as part of worship or ever has done at least in recent times. Unless someone can produce a source for this surprising assertion, it should be deleted. Flapdragon (talk) 10:07, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been Googling around, and can't find any mention that Sacred Harp is particularly prevalent on Sand Mountain, or that it is uniquely preserved there.  It seems the connection between Sand Mountain and Sacred Harp has received attention in recent years only because a recording of Sand Mountain Sacred Harp singers was used in the film "Cold Mountain".  But that's all I can find that makes it significant.  I'm from Sand Mountain, and never heard of Sacred Harp till I read this article.  Eastcote (talk) 12:51, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

message: The following coordinate fixes are needed for Sand Mountain:
The Wikipedia article uses the coordinates 32.854848, -86.91249.  This coordinate is southwest of Birmingham, Alabama -- which is itself located to the southwest of Sand Mountain.
The Wikipedia article states that the town of Albertville (coordinates: 34.265278, -86.211111) is located on Sand Mountain.  That Albertville is indeed located on Sand Mountain can be confirmed from the Sand Mountain overview map (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Sandmtn.png) and from any topographical map of Alabama (follow the various GeoHack links for examples).
