About this map

The Tombigbee River serves as the dividing line between Clarke and Washington counties in this 2024 study of the Alabama landscape. Centered on the city of Jackson, the map illustrates a developed corridor along the riverbanks, where industry and transportation routes like Commerce St meet the water's edge. This modern survey provides a detailed view of several established communities including Leroy, Toddtown, and Mays Crossroads, while also preserving the locations of numerous family and church burial grounds such as McKenzie Cem, Pine Crest Cem, and the Bell-Parker Cem.

Away from the urban center, the terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses including Stave Creek, Salt Creek, and Jackson Creek. Landmarks like the Saint Elmo Bar along the river and the rural crossroads of McVay reflect the long-standing geographic markers of the region. Local researchers will find value in the precise mapping of named roads such as Salt Works Rd and Hoven Springs Rd, which connect the scattered settlements and timberlands of the river valley.
