About this map

Texasville and the surrounding Barbour County landscape are defined by a network of small creeks and family-named landmarks in this modern survey. The terrain is notably hilly, with named rises like Joe Hill, Shipes Hill, and Walker Hill guiding the placement of country roads and local homesteads. Water flows through several drainages including Lindsey Cr, Beaver Cr, and the W Fork Choctawhatchee River along the western edge.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial grounds scattered across the townships, from the Texasville Cem and Adams Chapel Cem in the north to the Magnolia Memorial Cem in the southwest corner near Blue Springs. The map also captures several smaller water bodies used for local agriculture and recreation, such as Spencers Pond, Spivey Pond, and Lingo Pond near Edwin. This record illustrates the enduring rural character of southeastern Alabama, where roads like Co RD 21 and Adams Chapel RD connect long-standing communities and family lands.
