About this map

Big Escambia Creek and its diverse tributaries dominate this corner of Escambia County, Alabama. The landscape is defined by a network of rural hubs and family-named landmarks, most notably the junctions at Barnett Crossroads and Stanley Crossroads. These intersections serve as the primary anchors for a region characterized by small-scale agriculture and timber lands, with numerous small streams like Broken Leg Cr and Narrow Gap Cr carving through the low-lying terrain.

Genealogists will find several local burial grounds, including Hawkins Cem, Emmons Cem, and Magnolia Cem, which mark the presence of established families. The southern portion of the map includes the settlement of Sardine, situated near the Sardine Bridge over Robinson Cr. Transportation is focused on rural corridors like the Barnett Hwy and Grissett Bridge Rd, reflecting the long-standing importance of reliable creek crossings such as the Gressett Bridge in maintaining local connectivity.
