1966 Map of Borden Springs

About this map

Industrial history and rural community life intersect on the border of Alabama and Georgia near Augusta Mine Ridge. This mid-1960s survey records the legacy of iron production at Tecumseh Furnace and the Augusta Mine, while also documenting the recreational and social centers of Borden Springs and Borden Wheeler Springs. The landscape is defined by the Seaboard Coast Line and Southern railroads, which facilitated the movement of goods and people through the ridge-and-valley terrain. Significant portions of the southern map area are preserved within the Talladega National Forest, while the rural uplands are dotted with family-centric landmarks like Harmony Ch, Arrington Chapel, and Cherry Grove Cem. The presence of numerous small lakes, including McGee Lake and Beecham Lake, reflects the drainage patterns of Terrapin Creek and its tributaries.
