Mary Ellen,
Thanks for replying so quickly. In Range 23 West, Township 6 North, Sections
1-24 do fall in Covington County, Alabama. But, sections 25-36 are in
Florida. The area is just west of Old Ebenezer Church which is almost on the
state line.
>From Laurel Hill you would take 85A West several miles until you reach Walker
Road. Turn left on Walker Road and keep going until you reach the end of the
pavement (which is the Alabama state line). Just before you cross the state
line is a dirt road to the left (going west). Take this to the chain gate.
The gate is locked, but one of the local property owners has a key. Once
through take an immediate left (going south) and the dirt road winds back to
the west (in the direction of the river) up to the top of the hill. I am no
judge of acres, so it is possible that the area is actually in Section 28,
but one of the people I was with said it was Section 27. I have been using
the Okaloosa County General Highway Map from the DOT for reference.
Thanks again for your help.
Linda
