2018 Map of Madrid

About this map

Rehobeth and Madrid anchor this corner of Houston County, where the Alabama landscape meets the Florida state line. The terrain is defined by a dense network of small tributaries and ponds, including Singletarys Pond, Open Pond, and the winding Cypress Cr. This 2018 survey reveals a rural infrastructure of named intersections like Merritts Crossroads and Garretts Crossroads, reflecting a settlement pattern based on local road junctions rather than concentrated urban centers. For genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for its precise locations of family and community burial grounds, such as Saint Phillips Cem, Lassiter Cem, and Registers Cem. The presence of Southern Junction and Pratt Landing further illustrates the historical importance of transport and water access in this agricultural region.
