1958 Map of Gold Mine

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Sunny Home and Whitehouse anchor the northern landscape of this North Alabama survey, where the winding Buttahatchee River meets tributaries like Crooked Branch and Bostick Creek. The terrain is defined by a blend of agricultural clearings and industrial extraction, evident in the numerous Strip Mine and Gravel Pit sites scattered near Brilliant. Local history is preserved through a high density of rural institutions, from Poplar Springs Ch and Bethel Ch to family-named burial grounds like Halcomb Cem and Miles Cem. The arrival of the Southern railroad in the northeast corner at Glen Mary contrasts with the more isolated settlements of Gold Mine and Brookside further south. This edition includes purple revisions from the early 1980s, revealing modern changes to the forest cover and development within the William B Bankhead National Forest.
