About this map

Laurel Hill serves as the primary hub of this North Florida landscape, situated just south of the Alabama border where Okaloosa and Covington counties meet. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Murder Cr and Campbells Mill Cr, which carve through the terrain toward Cypress Pond and Ward Bay. Smaller rural settlements like Svea and Okaloo are connected by a web of local routes such as Steele Mill Creek Rd and Co Line Rd.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant landmarks preserved on this map, such as Mount Zion Cem and Rock Hill Cem. The naming of features like Black Gum Head and Coon Head reflects the local character of the panhandle interior, while roads named for resident families, such as Stokes Rd and Jim Strickland Rd, provide specific clues for tracing historical land ownership and family migration patterns near the state line.
