1968 Map of Goshen

About this map

The Conecuh River defines the western landscape of this Pike County region, where the town of Goshen sits near the confluence of Howard Creek and Elam Branch. During the late 1960s, this area supported a network of small agricultural and timber communities connected by rural schools and churches, such as Stringer High Sch and Bethel Ch. The terrain transitions from the river bottomlands to higher ground at Sanders Hill, where a Lookout Tower once overlooked the surrounding timber stands.
