1947 Map of Albertville

About this map

Albertville sits at the intersection of industry and rural landscape in this mid-century topographic record. The corporate boundary of the town encompasses a growing grid of streets, a sewage disposal plant, and a filtration plant, while the Seaboard rail line provides a vital transport link through the center of the community. Beyond the municipal limits, the terrain shifts toward the dramatic Short Creek Bluff and the waters of Lake Guntersville. The map reveals a high density of rural institutions, including the Asbury School and numerous small congregations such as Antioch Ch and Ephesus Ch.
