1978 Map of Walnut Hill

About this map

The Alabama-Florida state line defines the northern boundary of this landscape, where the Perdido River serves as the winding natural border between Baldwin and Escambia counties. The area is characterized by a dense network of creek drainages, including Brushy Creek and Rocky Creek, which flow southward through the undulating terrain. Settled communities are concentrated around Walnut Hill and the smaller Pineville to the west. Local genealogy is well-documented through several established burial grounds, such as Dutch Cem, Halls Fork Cem, and Antioch Cem, which sits adjacent to Antioch Ch. Industrial and transportation markers include a Claypit near the state line, a Landing Strip in the eastern section, and a Pipeline cutting across the southern reaches, reflecting the mid-20th-century development of this rural borderland.
