1906 Map of Birmingham Coal District

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

Industrial expansion and rural life intersect in the northern Jefferson County hills at the turn of the century. The Warrior River snakes along the northwestern edge of this 1904 survey, providing a boundary for a landscape defined by the extraction of coal. Large-scale operations like the Banner Mines, Graves Mines, and Morrow Mines are linked by a dense web of rail, including the Southern RR and the Kansas City Memphis and Birmingham RR.
