1943 Map of Deer Park

Genealogists can trace rural communities through numerous houses of worship and burial grounds, including Silver Hill Ch, Bethel Ch, and the Brannon Cem near the Mobile County line. The topography is marked by distinctive elevations like Big Sand Hill and Dwight Hill, while the network of watercourses including Okwakee Creek and Bennett Creek illustrates the traditional transport and settlement patterns of this Gulf Coastal Plain region during the early war years.
