2024 Map of Tensaw
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
The Alabama River carves the western boundary of this landscape, creating a complex network of wetlands and oxbows including Silver Lake and Southfield Lake. Central to the area's local history is the site of Fort Mims and the nearby Fort Mims Burial Ground, marking a significant location for early nineteenth-century research. The small settlement of Tensaw serves as a focal point for a rural community defined by scattered family-named roads like Atkinson Mill Rd and Danny Hall Rd. Genealogy is well-represented through several local burial sites, including the Montgomery Hill Cem and Mount Nebo Baptists Church Cem. The terrain south of Tensaw transitions into the dissected uplands around Majors Creek and Slaughter Branch, reflecting the traditional logging and agrarian patterns of Baldwin County.
