About this map

Oaky Streak and the settlement of Industry anchor this southern Alabama landscape, where the borders of Butler, Crenshaw, and Covington counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Oaky Woods Creek, Pigeon Creek, and Patsaliga Creek, which drain the timbered ridges and hollows. This survey provides a modern view of rural life centered on historic community landmarks, particularly the Oaky Streak Methodist Church and its accompanying Cemetery.

Local family history is preserved through numerous rural burial grounds such as Saint Lukes, Macedonia, and Consolation. The map documents a complex system of local roads, such as Whittle Bridge Rd and Halso Mill Rd, which trace the path of earlier 19th and 20th-century transport routes through the creek bottoms. Named water bodies like Wyrosdick Pond and Davenport Pond suggest a history of local land management in this deeply agricultural region.
