1978 Map of Barrineau Park

About this map

The Perdido River forms a winding natural boundary between Florida and Alabama in this late 1970s survey, anchoring a landscape defined by its waterways and small rural congregations. The settlement of Barrineau Park serves as a local hub, supported by the Barrineau Park Sch and several nearby country churches, including Lathram Chapel and St Elizabeths Ch. Traces of the region's earlier industrial infrastructure remain visible in the Old Railroad Grade that cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle, while active resource extraction is noted by several Sandpits and a Claypit. Numerous tributaries like Alligator Creek and McDavid Creek drain the area, feeding into the Perdido. The map also records early residential development in places like Tenile and Sunny Hill, alongside family landmarks such as Pugh Chapel and the Little Flock Ch near the eastern margin.
