About this map

Civil War Trenches and Kings Battery overlook the eastern shore of Mobile Bay, signaling the strategic military importance of this bluff-lined landscape. Surveyed in the late 1930s and published by the War Department in 1944, this record captures the growth of Fairhope and Daphne before the post-war suburban expansion. The Eastern Shore is characterized by its unique educational and social institutions, including the State Teachers College and a Friends Meetinghouse.
