About this map

Coffeeville Lake and the winding course of the Tombigbee River dominate the eastern edge of this Alabama landscape, where several historic river landings remain as markers of the region's river-based commerce. Locations such as Kemps Landing, Barrons Landing, and Eureka Landing signify a time when water transport was central to local life. The town of Pennington serves as a hub between these river points and inland settlements like Choctaw City and Deas.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community spaces, including the Millwood Cemetery, Red House Cemetery, and Ebenezer Church Cemetery. The map also details industrial and environmental management features like the Final Mill Effluent Treatment Pon and the C A Ezell Fish Hatchery, reflecting the modern balance between industry and the natural watershed of Tuckabum Creek and Mulberry Creek.
