About this map

Malone serves as the primary hub in this portion of Jackson County, where a grid of residential avenues and numbered streets intersects with major thoroughfares like SR-2. The surrounding landscape is characterized by a high density of small water bodies and drainage runs, including Parker Pond, Meredith Pond, and the serpentine Hays Spring Run near the southern boundary. This network of ponds and runs suggests a karst-influenced topography typical of the Florida Panhandle, where surface water frequently interacts with underlying limestone systems.

Rural life is anchored by small settlements and historic congregational sites like Ellis and the nearby Ellis Church. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and burial grounds, such as Coonrod Cem, Hays Cem, and McNealy Cem. To the south, the village of Greenwood sits at a crossroads, marking the transition between the agricultural upland and the water-rich basins of the Lower Chattahoochee region.
