1952 Map of Center Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Bluewater Creek and its many tributaries, including Keaty Branch and Richardson Creek, dominate this rural Lauderdale County landscape during the early 1950s. The settlement of Lexington appears in the northeast, while smaller communities like Center Hill, Arkdell, and Michael are connected by a network of local roads. The map reveals a high density of community institutions that suggest a closely-knit social fabric, featuring numerous rural schools such as Sweet Gum Sch and Palestine Sch, alongside a variety of houses of worship including Greens Chapel Flat Church and the North Carolina Church. A notable industrial or specialized agricultural feature is the Minnow Hatchery located near Mitchelltown, situated along the creek beds that define the local topography. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of family-named burial grounds like Pettus Cem, Scott Cem, and Stutts Cem.
