About this map

Wallace stands as the central hub of this Escambia County landscape, situated amidst a network of creek drainages and petroleum development in the early 21st century. The geography is defined by a series of south-flowing waterways, including Little Escambia Creek and Burnt Corn Creek, which dictate the placement of local roads and traditional settlements. For those tracing family histories in the region, the map provides precise locations for several burial grounds, such as Hanberry Cemetery, Cooper Cemetery, and the Wallace Church Cemetery.

The industrial character of the area is underscored by multiple extractive sites, including the Wallace Oil Field and the South Burnt Corn Creek Oil Field. A nod to the region's historic timber and naval stores economy remains visible with the labeling of Turpentine Camp along the road toward Franklin Mill Creek. The survey also documents the local transit network, featuring named routes like Madden Smith Loop and the CCC Trl.
