1966 Map of Decatur NW

About this map

The Gulf Mobile and Ohio railroad corridor serves as the primary industrial artery through this Newton County landscape, running adjacent to the small siding at Stratton. This mid-century survey reveals a deeply established rural community defined by its network of local congregations and family burying grounds. Scattered throughout the terrain are landmarks such as Fellowship Ch, Bethlehem Ch, and the Hollingsworth Cem, marking the social centers for residents in outlying areas like Sellers and Jeff. The hydrology of the region is equally complex, dominated by the winding paths of Okohatto Creek and Conehatta Creek. A unique feature of this specific edition is the inclusion of fence and field lines identified through 1964 aerial photography, providing a rare look at mid-century land use and agricultural boundaries that would normally be absent from standard topographic maps.
