1971 Map of Coatopa

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Sucarnoochee River winds through the West Alabama timberlands before meeting the broader Tombigbee River, which defines the border between Sumter and Marengo counties. This 1971 study, updated with mid-1980s data, reveals a rural landscape dominated by the winding paths of Ponkabia Creek, Mill Creek, and Soctum Creek. The settlement at Bellamy and the village of Coatopa serve as local anchors, connected by a road network that crosses an Old Railroad Grade north of town. Along the riverbanks, river-dependent history is evident at Chaney Landing and Deans Landing, while the presence of Marys Chapel Cem, Mt Tabor Ch, and Friendship Ch provides essential data points for family historians researching the congregations and communities of this river valley.
