About this map

Arrant Settlement and Baker Settlement are prominent features of this Holmes County landscape, reflecting the distributed rural community patterns common to the Florida Panhandle. The terrain is a complex arrangement of sandy uplands like Hickory Hill and Pleasant Ridge, interspersed with numerous depressions known locally as bays, including Turkeypen Bay and Panther Bay. The eastern boundary is defined by the winding course of the Choctawhatchee River, where landmarks like Bearpen Bend and Horseshoe Lake mark the active river system.

Industry and local history are etched into the map through features like Mill Spring and the Pleasant Ridge Cem, situated near the crossroads of Prosperity. The area's hydrology is particularly rich, featuring unique names like Duck Puddles and Slaughter Sand Pond. This 2021 update documents the contemporary road network, such as N Hwy 181, while preserving the location of family-named landmarks like Jackson Hill and Nancy Padgett Hill.
