2018 Map of Bristol

About this map

The Apalachicola River defines the western edge of this landscape, carving past the dramatic heights of Alum Bluff before reaching the settlement of Bristol. The town's layout is centered near the intersection of Co Rte 67 and Co Rte 270, serving as a gateway to the dense network of creeks and branches that drain Liberty County. To the south, Lake Mystic and Outside Lake sit amidst a low-lying terrain characterized by Mud Swamp, illustrating the hydrological complexity of the Panhandle. Genealogists and local researchers can identify significant community landmarks like the Bristol Cem and Mitchum Cem, as well as the small community at White Springs. The map details numerous named watercourses such as Telogia Cr and Big Sweetwater Cr, which shaped the early settlement patterns and rural life in this river-oriented region.
