About this map

Georgetown serves as a central hub in this corner of Mobile County, where the convergence of Georgetown Road and Mason Ferry Road defines the local navigation. The landscape is deeply carved by a dense network of watercourses including Big Creek, Puppy Creek, and Sand Hill Creek, suggesting a terrain shaped by consistent drainage towards the coastal lowlands. Small settlements and family-named landmarks illustrate the rural character of the early 1980s, with Boothetown and several burial sites like Lott Cem and Byrd Memorial Cem anchoring the community history.

Industrial activity is evident through scattered resource extraction sites such as a Sandpit and Claypit, while the Garrison Lookout Tower indicates the importance of forest management in the heavily wooded areas. The inclusion of a Pipeline and specific family-named branches like Lewis Williams Br provides researchers with precise data points for tracing property boundaries and mid-century infrastructure developments in this Alabama panhandle region.
