1953 Map of Stapleton

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Stapleton and the surrounding Baldwin County landscape are defined here by a transition from upland pine forests to the intricate creek networks of the Gulf Coast. The Louisville and Nashville railroad serves as the primary spine of the region, running through Steelwood and Stapleton. To the southwest, the settlement of Malbis appears alongside the Old Spanish Trail, reflecting the area's deep-rooted transportation history and agricultural heritage. Numerous family and community landmarks are documented, including Mt Zion Ch, Sibley Cem, and the Durant Cem near Bromley. The terrain is deeply incised by watercourses such as Bay Minette Creek and the Fish River, while industrial and safety infrastructure is marked by several Sand Pits and the Simerly Lookout Tower.
