1965 Map of Beulah

About this map

Lake Harding dominates the eastern edge of this Alabama-Georgia borderland, where the waters of the Chattahoochee River and Halawakee Creek meet. This mid-1960s landscape, later updated in the early 1980s, reveals a rural network of small communities and family landmarks. The area around Beulah and Wacoochee Valley is marked by numerous country churches, including Liberty Ch and Burrell Chapel, which served as local social anchors for generations. A notable Covered Bridge spans a tributary of Halawakee Creek, representing a surviving piece of older infrastructure amidst the changing topography. Further south, industry and recreation appear side-by-side, from the Quarry near Flint Ridge to a local Drag Strip. Genealogists can find several burial grounds, such as the Mountain Springs Cemeteries and Ebenezer Cem, providing key points for tracing local family roots across Lee and Chambers Counties.
