2020 Map of Lee Long Bridge

About this map

The Alabama River carves a deep winding path through this Wilcox County landscape, defining the local geography as it flows toward the William 'Bill' Dannelly Reservoir in the north. The settlement of Midway sits on the eastern banks, positioned near the prominent Lee Long Bridge, which serves as a vital crossing point. The area's history is reflected in a series of family-named burial sites and landmarks, from Mendenhall Cem and Sand Island Cem to the south, to Pledger Cem and Bones Hill Cem further east. A network of rural roads such as Clifton Ferry Rd and Cobbs Landing Rd hint at former river crossings and historic landings. Tributaries like Shell Creek, Dixon Creek, and Buckcreek Cr feed into the river, creating a complex drainage system across the diverse topography of the Coastal Plain.
