About this map

Stockton sits at the northern edge of this coastal plain landscape, where the Tensaw River drainage creates a dense network of tributaries including Aikin Creek and Flat Creek. This 2011 survey illustrates the northern expansion of Bay Minette, the Baldwin County seat, showing the transition from the city's residential streets to the timberlands and farms of the surrounding countryside.

Genealogists can find significant local history in the three mapped burial grounds: Stockton Memorial Cemetery, Bay Minette Cemetery, and Stanmyer Cemetery. The map documents the importance of water access for this region, labeling historic points like Barlow Landing and Shell Landing. Local landmarks such as the Pinetreat Church Camp and the distribution of family-named roads like Calvin Richerson Rd and Lea Baird Ln provide a detailed look at the community's contemporary geography and rural land use patterns.
