About this map

The Pea River carves a sinuous path through this rural landscape on the border of Pike and Barbour Counties, serving as the central topographical feature for the surrounding communities. At the northern end of this corridor, Josie sits near the junction of Us-29 and several county routes, while the settlement of Enon remains anchored by the Enon Cem. The area is notably dense with small family or community burial sites, including the Old Ramah Cem and Sardis Cem, which provide significant points of interest for genealogical research in this part of Alabama.

Water management and local agriculture are evidenced by numerous small impoundments such as Hardens Pond, Barbarees Pond, and Shipmans Pond. These water bodies are fed by a network of creeks like Buckhorn Cr and Connors Cr that drain into the larger river valley. Movement through the region is facilitated by historic crossings and thoroughfares like Hobdys Bridge and Perote Rd, reflecting a transportation network designed around the river's winding course and the rolling terrain of the coastal plain.
