The boundary between Sumter and Choctaw Counties bisects this West Alabama landscape, a region defined by its dense network of creeks and small settlements. The community of Ward serves as a northern focal point, while the smaller hamlets of Kinterbish and Halsell anchor the central and southern sections of the map. This area is heavily forested and crisscrossed by waterways such as Thornton Creek and the meandering Kinterbish Creek. Several family and community burial grounds, including Fairfield Cemetery, Beulah Cemetery, and Pine Grove Cemetery, are scattered throughout the quadrangle, indicating a long-established rural population. The terrain rises to its most prominent point at Thornton Hill in the northwest, providing a clear picture of the local topography and the dispersed road network connecting these rural outposts.
