1966 Map of Amory
USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
The railroad town of Amory dominates the northwest corner of this mid-1960s survey, where the St Louis - San Francisco rail line cuts through a landscape shaped by local creeks and small-scale industry. The town grid, featuring Main St and Front St, sits just south of McAlpine Lake, while the surrounding rural areas are defined by a network of country churches and family-named cemeteries. To the east, the small settlement of Hatley is surrounded by terrain carved by Burketts Creek and Turner Branch. The map reveals a balance between the industrial activity at the Gravel Pit and Gas Well sites and the civic presence of institutions like Gilmore Hospital. Genealogists will find particular value in the numerous recorded burial grounds, including Greenbrier Cem, Gilleylen Cem, and the Harmony Ch Cem, which anchor the small communities of Becker and the surrounding Monroe County countryside.
