About this map

The Alabama River winds through this landscape on the border of Clarke and Baldwin Counties, defining a region where river transport and local history intersect. Along its banks, numerous landings such as Silver Landing and Boathouse Landing point to the enduring importance of the waterway for commerce and travel. The terrain transitions from the low-lying wetlands of Southfield Lake and Mimms Lake to the more elevated ground at Montgomery Hill, where several community centers are established. This 1983 edition highlights a network of country churches, including Antioch Ch and St Matthews Ch, alongside significant historical markers. Most notably, the site of Fort Mimms (Historical) and its associated Fort Mimms Lookout Tower anchor the area's heritage, reflecting a deep-seated connection to the early frontier and the territorial conflicts that shaped southern Alabama.
