1969 Map of Duncanville

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Duncanville serves as the central hub for this portion of Tuscaloosa County, situated at the intersection of local transportation routes in the late 1960s. The Gulf Mobile and Ohio railroad corridor dominates the central landscape, running northwest toward Tuscaloosa. This transit line is mirrored by remnants of former industrial activity, including an Old Railroad Grade that speaks to the area's timber and transport history. To the south, the boundary of the Talladega National Forest marks a shift into more densely wooded terrain, where Wiggins Creek and South Sandy Creek drain the interior. The map is particularly rich for genealogical research, documenting several rural community centers such as Mt Olive Ch and Mt Sinai Ch, each with its associated cemetery. Notable landmarks like the Shiloh Lookout Tower provide fixed points in the forest for monitoring this timber-rich region of Alabama.
