1959 Map of Chelsea
USGS Topo · Published 1989About this map
Oak Mountain State Park anchors the northwestern portion of this Shelby County landscape, where the ridges of Double Oak Mountain and Valley Ridge dictate the settlement patterns of the late 1950s. The community of Chelsea serves as a local hub along the Seaboard Coast Line railroad, which cuts through the mountainous terrain at gaps like The Narrows. Rural life is centered around a network of small churches and schools, including New Hope Ch and Pleasant Valley Ch.
