About this map

Choccolocco and Iron City anchor this portion of the valley northeast of Oxford, where the Appalachian foothills meet the dense stands of the Mountain Longleaf National Wildlife Refuge. The landscape is defined by its abundant water sources, from the winding Choccolocco Creek to numerous named springs like Upper Harper Spring, Criswell Spring, and the namesake Joseph Springs. These water sources historically sustained local industry and agriculture, evidenced by Whitesides Mill and the proximity of the Talladega National Forest border.

Transport and recreation intersect through the winding Joseph Springs Motor Way and the Pinhoti National Recreation Trail, which traverses the eastern heights near Brymer Mtn. The map preserves the placement of older community markers, including Old Davisville, DeArmanville, and the Davistown Cem, offering a clear view of how these settlements integrated with the terrain of Muscadine Mtn and Frederick Hill.
