About this map

Lapine and Highland Home anchor this rural landscape along the boundary of Montgomery and Crenshaw counties. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways feeding into Patsaliga Creek and Pintlalla Creek. The map documents a scattered settlement pattern characterized by small community centers like Sardis and Saville, alongside spiritual and family landmarks such as Rocky Mount Cem and New Ebenezer Ch.

Transport history is visible in the prominent Old Railroad Grade running through the eastern portion of the sheet, reflecting the area's transition away from rail-dependent commerce. Water features such as Russells Lake and Magnolia Shores indicate more modern recreational developments, while family-named branches like Daniels Mill Branch suggest earlier agricultural and industrial uses of the local creeks.
