1981 Map of Calhoun

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Calhoun and New Hope anchor this Lowndes County landscape during the early 1980s, positioned along the vital transportation corridor of the Louisville and Nashville railroad. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Big Swamp Creek, Fort Deposit Creek, and Ballards Creek, which carve through the rural acreage. Local community life is evidenced by numerous country churches such as Big Union Ch, Mt Calvary Ch, and Temple Gate Ch, which serve as important landmarks for genealogical research in this part of Alabama. The map also delineates the northern limits of the Fort Deposit Corp Bdy, showing how the town's influence extends into the surrounding agricultural and swampy lands. Man-made water features like Midfield Lake and Hammond Lake dot the northern sections, suggesting a landscape modified for local utility and recreation amidst the natural drainage of the region.
