2012 Map of Milton South

About this map

Avalon Beach and the surrounding coastal communities in Santa Rosa County sit at the confluence of several major Florida waterways, including Escambia Bay and Blackwater Bay. The landscape is defined by its intricate shoreline, where Whiteoak Bayou, Indian Bayou, and Jakes Bayou carve into the mainland, separating local settlements like Mulat and Harp. Further north, the Blackwater River passes through East Milton near the Pensacola Community College campus, reflecting the area's role as an educational and residential hub. This 2012 survey captures the modern infrastructure of the region, including the Mulat Lookout Tower and the suburban growth around Pea Ridge and Galt City. Family historians will find interest in the documented locations of several local burial grounds, such as Magnolia Cem, Strickland Cem, and Milton Cem, which remain as anchored points of heritage amid the shifting bayous and expanding road networks.
