About this map

Fish River and its numerous tributaries, including Threemile Cr and Bay Br, define the drainage of this Baldwin County landscape. The area shows a mix of rural crossroads and growing residential clusters, particularly around Stapleton in the north and the expanding footprint of Daphne and Spanish Fort to the west. Local history is anchored by several long-standing burial grounds such as Durant Cem, Sibley Cem, and the Mt Aid Cem.

Transport corridors like Us-31 and Al-59 intersect the region, while the Dolive Rdg provides a distinct geographic landmark near the coast. The presence of Malbis and Ellisville suggests the persistence of smaller community centers amidst the broader shift toward suburban development near the bay. Geologists and local researchers can trace the intricate network of small branches like Boggy Br and Wilson Cr that have shaped the settlement patterns of this coastal plain.
