1968 Map of Central Mills

About this map

Chilatchee Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Chilatchee Creek and Rogers Creek, define the topography of this rural Black Belt landscape. The settlement of Central Mills serves as a central point along the Louisville and Nashville railroad corridor, which traverses the area alongside the Southern line. This 1960s survey captures a community deeply rooted in its local institutions, evidenced by the high density of country churches such as Shady Grove Ch, Concord Ch, and New Bethel Spring Ch.
