1954 Map of Belew Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Big River carves a winding path through the western portion of this Jefferson County landscape, serving as a primary drainage for the surrounding hills. In the mid-1950s, the terrain is defined by its numerous water bodies and small, dispersed settlements like Belew Creek and Goldman. The creation of Lake Tishomingo stands out as a significant landmark, marking a shift in the local geography with its irregular shoreline tucked into the valley. Community life is centered around rural landmarks such as Glade Chapel, Highland Ch, and Stephens Ch, which provide fixed points for genealogical research in an area otherwise characterized by ridges like Sand Ridge. The presence of a Lookout Tower and a Landing Strip further reflects the mid-century infrastructure and land management of the region.
