1942 Map of Perdido
USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
The Perdido River and its many tributaries, including Pine Log Creek and Turkey Creek, define this region where the borders of Baldwin, Monroe, and Escambia counties meet. Surveyed in the early 1940s, the map reveals a landscape of scattered agricultural settlements and active timber harvesting, indicated by numerous Logging notations and remote outposts like Brown Crosby Camp. The town of Atmore serves as a principal hub, situated at the junction of the L & N RR and the St L S F RR. Local history is preserved through the locations of rural congregations and family burial grounds, such as Judson Ch and the Lindsey Cem. The area around Poarch and Freemanville shows a dense network of small farms and schools, including the Freemanville Sch, while the Atmore Airport marks the growing infrastructure of the mid-century era.
