1950 Map of Center Grove

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Brindley Mountain dominates the eastern half of this Alabama landscape, where deep coves like Widener Cove and Jackson Cove cut into the plateau. The rural character of Morgan County in the late 1940s is evident in the network of small family-centered settlements, including Woodland Mills, Florette, and Center Grove. Along the western edge, the rising waters of Wheeler Reservoir have transformed the lower reaches of Cotaco Creek, creating a distinct shoreline where the Tennessee Valley Authority established a formal boundary. Local life of the era is anchored by numerous landmarks such as Redoak Grove Church, Antioch Ch, and the Woodland Mills School. Genealogists may find value in the presence of scattered family burial grounds, including Collins Cemetery and the Edmonson Cemetery, which reflect the localized history of these mountain communities before significant modern development.
