2018 Map of Citronelle West

About this map

Citronelle anchors the eastern edge of this landscape, where the boundary between Washington County and Mobile County defines the local geography. The area is characterized by a dense network of creek drainages, including the prominent Escatawpa River and the winding Lotts Mill Cr. These watercourses have long dictated the placement of early settlements and family lands. For those tracing local heritage, several burial grounds are preserved across the terrain, such as New Hope Cem, Baxter Will Cem, and Brannon Cem. The road system, including the Beverly Jeffries Hwy and Lott Rd, connects these rural points with Citronelle Lake, a notable feature near the town center. The map reveals a transition from organized town blocks to the scattered farmsteads and timberlands of the Alabama piney woods, documented through family-named routes like Robert Walker Rd and Phelan Howard Rd.
