1978 Map of Dyas

About this map

Perdido and the surrounding pine-land communities sit along the Seaboard Coast Line railroad during the late 1970s. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Perdido River and its numerous tributaries, including Dyas Creek and Mc Curtin Creek. The map documents a rural corridor where transportation history is visible in the route of the Old Pensacola Road cutting through the western section. Local social hubs are centered around small settlements like Dyas and New Providence, where the New Providence Ch serves as a landmark. Genealogical interest is anchored by features like Cain Cem and family-named locations such as Carney and Phillipsville. Industrial activity is represented by a Claypit near the southern edge, illustrating the local extraction economy of the era.
