1950 Map of Hobbs Cross Roads

About this map

Pea River and the Choctawhatchee River frame a rural landscape at the border of Alabama and Florida, where early mid-century life centered on scattered crossings and country churches. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Parrot Creek, Hurricane Creek, and the curiously named Hog And Hominy Road. Small social hubs like Hobbs Cross Roads and Sweet Gum Head appear alongside several significant burial grounds such as McDuffie Cem and Royals Cem.
