2014 Map of Toxey

About this map

Toxey and Gilbertown anchor this Choctaw County landscape, where the winding course of Okatuppa Creek and its many tributaries like Bogueloosa Creek define the local geography. The settlement pattern is characterized by small communities and family-named landmarks connected by a network of rural roads such as Needham Road and Bonner Road. For those tracing local history, several distinct burial grounds are documented, including Bogueloosa Cemetery near the northern boundary and the Old Lusk Cemetery situated further east near the Lusk community. The southern portion of the area features Mosley Bridge crossing the Okatuppa, a key point of transit near the Paragon area. This 2014 survey documents the enduring rural character of southwestern Alabama, from the creek bottoms of Seals Creek to the upland reaches of Chappell Hill.
