About this map

The Pea River flows across the northern edge of this landscape where the Florida-Alabama state line meets at the intersection of Walton, Holmes, and Geneva counties. Settlement is concentrated around the crossroads of Darlington and Leonia, connected by a network of rural roads such as SR-2 and CR-181. The topography is defined by numerous water features, including the Hurricane Cr drainage system and isolated water bodies like Burgess Pond and Miller Pond.

Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved on this 2015 survey, including Leonia Cem, Limestone Cem, Broxton Cem, and Padgett Cem. The southern reach of the quadrangle shows the distinctive hydrology of the Florida panhandle with Weaver Springs and the winding course of Gum Cr. The grid of the Public Land Survey System remains a primary structural element of the area's development, as evidenced by the township and range boundaries that segment the timber and agricultural lands.
