1994 Map of Dyas

About this map

The Perdido River forms the eastern boundary of this mid-1990s landscape, marking the transition from Baldwin County, Alabama, to Florida. The area is characterized by a network of creek bottoms and low ridges, where several small settlements such as Perdido and Dyas are established along the primary rail line. Local history is deeply etched into the terrain through features like the Old Pensacola Road and scattered rural institutions. Genealogical researchers will find value in the specific locations of the Cain Cem, New Providence Ch, and Horseneck Ch. The presence of a Claypit and several named watercourses, including Bushy Creek and Horseneck Creek, illustrates the drainage patterns and resource extraction that defined the local economy before the turn of the 21st century.
