1936 Map of Flat Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

Sand Mountain dominates this portion of the Alabama landscape, characterized by a series of deep gulfs and high overlooks during the mid-1930s. The Tennessee Valley Authority and U.S. Geological Survey collaborated to document this area, capturing a rural network of ridge-top settlements and creek-side cemeteries. Small community centers like Flat Rock and Cameronsville serve as focal points for the surrounding farmstead roads. Local spiritual life is well-represented by numerous landmarks including Liberty Hill Ch, Union Ch, and Beulah Chapel. The terrain is deeply incised by water features such as Long Creek and Indian Creek, which cut through the plateaus and create notable geographic markers like Hollaway Point and O'Neal Point. This survey provides a clear view of the Jackson and De Kalb County boundary line as it follows the high ground before the era of widespread modern development.
