About this map

The Choctawhatchee River and its meandering western banks define this rural stretch of the Alabama-Florida border. In the late 20th century, the landscape remains primarily defined by small crossroad settlements and a network of country churches, including Midway Ch, Mt Ida Ch, and New Zion Ch. The transition between Geneva County, Alabama, and Holmes County, Florida, is marked by distinctive water features like Alberson Stretch and the Widewater. Local history is anchored at sites such as Curry Ferry and several family-named landmarks like Smith Crossroads and Pittman. The presence of Blackfish Lake, Chapman Lake, and Blue Lake in the southern reaches highlights the low-lying, water-rich terrain of the Florida Panhandle's northern edge.
