1957 Map of Clayhatchee

About this map

The Choctawhatchee River dominates the landscape of southeastern Alabama in this 1950s survey, updated with revisions from the late 1970s. The river's winding course forms the natural boundary between Dale, Houston, and Geneva counties, creating a complex network of drainages including Hurricane Creek and Claybank Creek. This area preserves evidence of long-term human habitation, notably the Indian Mound situated on a bend of the river south of Clayhatchee.
