1953 Map of Barton

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Southern Railway and Lee Highway corridor serves as the primary artery for this portion of Colbert County, connecting the settlements of Cherokee and Barton. North of the tracks, a drive-in theater reflects mid-century social life, while the landscape south of the corridor rises into the prominent Mills Mountain Ridge. This area is characterized by numerous hollows, such as Stillhouse Hollow and Bugg Mill Hollow, which suggest a history of localized water-powered industry and traditional Appalachian settlement patterns.
