1951 Map of Glendale

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The Alabama-Florida state line divides this 1951 topographic survey, where the rolling pinelands of Walton County meet the southern reaches of the Conecuh National Forest. Small farming settlements and crossroads communities like Gaskin, Glendale, and Darlington anchor a landscape defined by an intricate network of wetlands, including Big Swamp-Annez, Peasly Bay, and Pikehole Bay. These "bays" and ponds reflect the unique hydrology of the coastal plain, providing natural boundaries for early settlers. Local life at the mid-century mark centered on numerous rural congregations and resting places, such as Danley Hill Ch, Friendship Ch, and Ray Cem. A notable geographic landmark, the Natural Bridge, sits in the northwest near Natural Bridge Creek, while the Pea River serves as a major drainage on the eastern edge of the quadrangle, illustrating the importance of river systems to the regional economy.
