2018 Map of Kushla

About this map

Chickasaw Creek and its many tributaries, including Magee Cr and Seabury Cr, define the landscape northwest of Mobile. This suburban and rural interface shows the transition from the concentrated campus of the Univ of Mobile and the community of Eight Mile toward the more dispersed settlements of Kushla and Mauvilla. The map captures a detailed network of local roads such as Old Citronelle Hwy and Kushla Station Rd, reflecting the area's development. Local history is anchored by several cemeteries including Mauvilla Cem, Crawford Chapel Cem, and Valhalla Gardens Cem, which serve as permanent markers of the region's long-standing family lineages. The terrain is marked by distinct drainage patterns like Rocky Run and Double Branch, showing how the hydrology influenced the placement of early settlements like Smithtown and Oak Grove.
