2018 Map of Wallace

About this map

Little Escambia Cr and Wild Fork Cr dominate the drainage patterns of this Escambia County landscape, carving through the terrain near the small community of Wallace. The area's history is preserved in its numerous rural burial grounds, including Wallace Church Cem, Hanberry Cem, and Pleasant Hill Cem, which serve as vital markers for local genealogical research. In the northeast corner, the settlement of Appleton sits near the headwaters of Burnt Corn Cr. The local road network is a mix of established routes like Co Rd 40 and more descriptive paths such as Three Fingers Loop and Fish Hook Rd. A notable legacy of early conservation work is visible in the presence of the CCC Trl, referencing the Civilian Conservation Corps' impact on the Alabama landscape. To the south, the waters of Chavers Cr and Franklin Mill Cr hint at the historical reliance on local waterways for industry and navigation.
