2024 Map of Ward Basin

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

The Yellow River and its complex network of oxbows and backwaters, including Dead River and Plank Bridge Lake, dominate this landscape east of the Blackwater Bay. Settlement is concentrated in East Milton, while the southern and eastern portions of the map are defined by the extensive military reservations of Eglin Air Force Base. Genealogists will find several notable burial grounds, such as Welcome Cem, Friendship Cem, and the Lewis Williams Memorial Cem near the river bluffs. The map captures the transition from the residential street grids of East Milton to the more isolated communities of Pine Bluff and Broxson. Significant aviation infrastructure is also evident through the Santa Rosa Naval Outlying Field and Choctaw Naval Outlying Field, reflecting the area's strategic role in regional defense and naval training.
