About this map

The Starlington Lookout Tower stands as a focal point in this portion of Butler County, overseeing a landscape defined by the intersection of several notable southern Alabama waterways. The drainage patterns of Long Creek, Panther Creek, and Oaklog Creek create a structured network of lowlands and ridges, supporting small agricultural communities like Starlington, Beacon, and Providence. The infrastructure of the area is heavily influenced by these natural features, with rural routes such as Mt Pisgah Rd and Starlington Rd following the high ground between creek beds.

Genealogists will find significant local history preserved in several burial grounds including Mount Pisgah Cemetery near the western edge and Stamps Cemetery to the south. The presence of the W O Blackmon Dam and water bodies like Casey Pond and Wise Pond illustrate the management of local water resources for agricultural or residential use. This 2011 survey provides a contemporary perspective on these long-standing rural settlements and their connection to the land.
