About this map

Darlington and Leonia sit at the center of this rural landscape where the Florida panhandle meets the Alabama border. The area is defined by a dense network of hydrologic features, from the flowing waters of Limestone Creek and Hurricane Cr to smaller basins like Collinsworth Pond and Miller Pond. This environment is characterized by numerous "bays," such as Dukes Bay and Peavey Bay, which are typical of the region's low-lying, often swampy terrain.

Genealogists and local researchers will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and rural burial grounds. The map clearly identifies the Leonia Cem, Limestone Cem, Padgett Cem, and Broxton Cem, each serving as a focal point for the surrounding homesteads. The land is partitioned by a grid of county roads, including Co Rd 181 E and Co Rd 2 E, which connect these dispersed settlements and agricultural tracts across the Walton Co and Holmes Co lines.
