1967 Map of Brownville

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

The Sipsey River carves a winding path through the eastern half of this terrain, its broad floodplain contrasting with the high ridges of Phillips Mountain to the north. This 1960s landscape is defined by the intersection of rural community life and resource extraction, with Gravel Pits operating near the Pickens and Tuscaloosa county boundary. While the settlement at Brownville serves as a local anchor, the presence of an Old Railroad Grade running parallel to the river suggests a shift in the regional transport network, moving away from earlier industrial rail reliance toward the light-duty road system shown here. Scattered hilltop sites like Pleasant Ridge Ch and Spring Hill Ch reveal a settlement pattern tied to the high ground above the river valleys, where family-named sites such as Winn Cem and McGee Cem provide essential data points for local genealogy.
