About this map

Cubahatchee Creek and its many tributaries, including Beaverdam Creek and Coon Hop Creek, define the landscape of this rural portion of the Alabama coastal plain. Small communities like Hardaway and Downs anchor the southern half of the map, connected by the Seaboard Coast Line railroad. Further north, an Old Railroad Grade indicates an evolving transportation network near Liverpool.

Local genealogy is well-documented through a series of rural landmarks, such as Lively Hope Ch, Union Oak Grove Ch, and Damascus Ch. The survey records several family and community burial sites, including the Mt Pisgah Cem and Nebraska Ch Cem, which serve as permanent markers of the area's mid-20th-century settlement pattern. The terrain is characterized by intricate drainage systems like Thobotooco Branch and Old Town Creek as they flow through the Macon and Bullock county line area.
