1990 Map of Frink

About this map

The Chipola River flows through this panhandle landscape, creating a network of sloughs and swamps that define the local geography. Near the river's edge, Scotts Ferry and Abe Springs represent long-standing riverfront points of interest. The map reveals a pattern of rural life organized around modest settlements like Frink and Kinard, where community identity centers on local institutions such as Williams Memorial Ch and Cypress Cr Ch. The topography transition toward the Dead Lakes in the south provides insight into the hydrologic character of the region before further modern development. Genealogists will find value in the precise locations of family-named landmarks like McClellan Cem and the various bluffs and landings, including Frozen Bluff and Blazed Pine Landing, which hint at a time when river transport was vital to Calhoun County commerce.
