The Central of Georgia railroad line anchors the southern landscape of this 1971 study, where the border of Tallapoosa and Chambers counties cuts through a series of rural communities. The map reveals a dense network of country churches that served as local hubs, including Mt Lebanon Ch, Mt Sinai Ch, and New Canaan Ch. Small-scale industry and education are represented by the presence of Jones Mill near the southern edge and the Plainview Sch in the northeast. The terrain is defined by a dendritic drainage pattern of creek branches like Little Chatahospee Creek and Little Sandy Creek, which historically dictated the placement of settlements such as Judson and Kendall Crossroads. This survey provides an exact record of mid-century rural Alabama before modern consolidation changed the character of these small crossroads.
