1947 Map of Dunaway Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The H Neely Henry Lake section of the Coosa River dominates this 1947 landscape, later updated in 1972 to reflect the evolving shoreline and residential growth near Gadsden. The terrain is defined by the prominent ridge of Dunaway Mountain, which separates the river valley from the inland settlements of Rainbow City and Old Harmony. This map captures a period of transition as aviation infrastructure like the Gadsden Municipal Airport and a smaller Landing Strip appear alongside traditional rural landmarks. Genealogists can trace local family and community centers through numerous country churches, such as Friendship Ch and Union Hall Ch, as well as the Kilgrims Rest Sch and Pilgrims Rest Cem in the Southside area. The Southern railroad line and a significant Pipe Line corridor further illustrate the region's mid-century industrial and transport development.
