2024 Map of Bladon Springs

About this map

Bladon Springs and the surrounding piney woods of the Choctaw and Washington County line define this corner of Southwest Alabama. The landscape is heavily marked by its drainage network, where Sea Warrior Creek and Santa Bogue Creek wind through a territory primarily connected by gravel and country roads like Blue Dirt Rd and Sea Warrior Rd. For researchers, the map provides a census of local burial grounds and small community centers including Frankville and Silver Cross. Genealogists will find several family and community landmarks such as McDowell Cem and Mount Bethel Cem situated near the intersection of old parish and range lines. The transition from the northern settlements into the swampy bottomlands of Pine Barren Creek reveals the rural character of the region as it persists into the twenty-first century.
