About this map

Tombigbee River frontage and the winding course of Coto h aga Creek dominate this 2011 survey of western Alabama. Small settlements like Whitfield, Edna, and Pelham are connected by a network of rural roads such as Boll Weevil Rd and Old Santee RR Rd, the latter hinting at the region's former rail history. The map captures an era of river-based infrastructure, evidenced by numerous historical river points including Crooms Upper Landing, Crooms Lower Landing, and Liberty Landing.

Industrial and community landmarks are scattered across the landscape, from the American Can Company Dam at American Can Company Lake to local burial grounds like Bethlehem Cemetery and Black Bluff Cemetery. The proximity of places like Persimmon Grove and Indian Springs to the intricate waterways of Kinterbish Creek and Cane Creek illustrates the enduring rural character of this Choctaw County landscape.
