2024 Map of Glenwood

About this map

Conecuh River drainage patterns define this part of the Alabama coastal plain, where the landscape is marked by small agricultural hubs and family cemeteries. Small rural communities like Vidette, Social Town, and Shirleys Crossroads serve as navigational anchors across the county line dividing Crenshaw and Pike counties. The map highlights several points of interest for local historians, including Darien Church and numerous burial sites such as Emmaus Cem and the New Providence Cem. Topographically, the area transitions from the higher elevations of Goat Ridge in the southwest down toward the creek-fed lowlands of Sandy Creek and Buck Creek. The abundance of small bodies of water, including Folmer Ponds and Mandy-Warren Lake, suggests a landscape shaped by both natural drainage and private land management.
