1974 Map of Toxey

About this map

Toxey and Gilbertown anchor this mid-1970s landscape in southern Choctaw County, where the local economy was shaped by the Burlington Northern railroad and the Toxey Oil Field. A significant historical landmark, the Indian Treaty Boundary, cuts through the center of the map, providing a tangible reference to early land agreements in Alabama. The terrain is a network of ridges and watercourses like Bogueloosa Creek and Okatuppa Creek, punctuated by several community gathering points such as the Bonner Tabernacle and Old Look Tabernacle.
