About this map

The municipal center of Headland and the northern reaches of Dothan anchor this regional study of southeastern Alabama, where the transition from Henry County to Houston County is marked by a complex network of tributaries and local landmarks. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Little Omusee Cr and Omusee Cr, with several smaller waterways like Burdeshaw Mill Cr and Spivey Mill Cr hinting at the area's earlier agricultural and industrial reliance on water power.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of community spaces, from the central East Side Cem and West Side Cem in Headland to the Piney Grove Primitive Baptist Church Cem and Bethlehem Cem in the surrounding rural townships. The map documents the modern infrastructure of the 2020s, including the Headland Municipal Airport and residential developments like Glenwood Ests, alongside long-established communities like Kinsey and Webb.
