About this map

Malone serves as the primary hub in this portion of Jackson County, where a grid of rural roads connects several established community centers and local landmarks. The town of Greenwood anchors the southern portion of the sheet near Greenwood Airport, while the northern landscape is notably punctuated by a U. S. Coast Guard Station near the border with Alabama. The terrain is characterized by numerous small basins and named water bodies such as Jordan Bay, Hog Pen Pond, and Taylor Bay, suggesting a low-lying landscape where drainage patterns have shaped local land use and settlement.

Local history and genealogy researchers can locate several rural institutions, including Union Grove Sch and a variety of country churches like Snow Hill Ch and Rocky Grove Ch. The map also preserves the locations of family-named sites and burial grounds, such as McNealy Cem, Coonrod Cem, and Hays Cem, providing a detailed look at the social geography of the Florida Panhandle in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
