1965 Map of Beulah

About this map

Lake Harding dominates the eastern boundary of this mid-century landscape where the Chattahoochee River separates Lee and Chambers counties in Alabama from Georgia. The intricate shoreline of the lake reaches deep inland via Halawakee Creek, which passes beneath a historic Covered Bridge. This era shows a network of established rural communities and ecclesiastical centers, including Beulah, Mechanicsville, and Wacoochee Valley. Genealogists will find numerous family-named landmarks and local burial grounds, such as the Mountain Springs Cemeteries, Burrell Chapel, and Weeping Mary Ch. Elevated positions like Flint Ridge are marked by the Salem Lookout Tower and a Radio Tower, overlooking a terrain dotted with active Quarries and small settlements like McCulloh and Yarbrough along the rural road network.
