1969 Map of Black Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Lewis Smith Lake dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its deep fingers reaching into the William B Bankhead National Forest along the Sipsey Fork and Clear Creek. The late 1960s terrain shows a transition from the dense woodlands of the national forest to the developed shorelines around Arley Landing and the inland settlement of Black Pond. In the southern reaches, Falls City sits near the confluence of Coon Creek and Clear Creek, while the Black Pond Lookout Tower stands as a central landmark for forest management. Genealogists will find a wealth of family-named sites, including the Williams, Bennett, and Wilson cemeteries, alongside rural congregations like Union Grove Ch and the McDowell Memorial Chapel. The map even preserves evidence of older transit patterns, such as Slick Ford on Yellow Creek.
