About this map

The border of Washington and Mobile counties runs through this landscape of the Gulf Coastal Plain in the early 1980s. The settlement at Sims Chapel sits alongside the Burlington Northern railroad, which cuts a northwest-to-southeast path through the timbered terrain. Further southwest, the community of Charity Chapel serves as a local focal point, anchored by the Charity Chapel Ch and the nearby Sawyer Cem. The land is characterized by an intricate network of waterways like Poll Bayou and Bear Creek, punctuated by industrial activity. In the southwest corner, the northern edge of Citronelle is visible, surrounded by a concentration of Oil Wells and pipelines, reflecting the region's mid-century energy development. Smaller sites like Andrews and Summit appear as rural junctions, while the Illinois Central Gulf rail line provides a secondary transit corridor through the eastern woods.
