About this map

Red Level serves as the primary hub of this south Alabama landscape, situated near the southwestern corner where the Louisville and Nashville railroad cuts through the terrain. The community infrastructure of the early 1970s is well-documented, showing the local High Sch and several houses of worship, including Jernigan Ch and the centrally located Fairmount Cem. To the west, Crystal Springs Park provides a clear landmark near the town's edge.

The topography is defined by the winding course of Patsaliga Creek as it flows south toward its confluence with the Conecuh River at Point A Lake. Numerous named ponds like Nall Pond and Kilpatrick Pond dot the drainage basins, while historical industry is noted at Gunter Mill on the southern edge of the survey. Rural life is anchored by family-named sites and country churches such as Pigeon Creek Ch and New Home Ch, which reflect the area's genealogical roots.
