1938 Map of Greenbrier

USGS Topo · Published 1938

About this map

Limestone Creek and its complex network of tributaries, including Beaverdam Creek and Bradford Creek, dominate this late-1930s landscape along the border of Limestone and Madison Counties. The area shows a transition from traditional rural agriculture to the modern influences of the Tennessee Valley Authority, with the southern reaches of the map shaped by the newly formed Wheeler Reservoir. Smaller communities and crossroads such as Burgreen Corner, Oakland, and Manley Crossroad are scattered throughout, supported by a system of country schools like Mt Pleasant Sch and Maple Grove Sch. The Southern Railroad provides the primary industrial backbone, connecting the settlements of Belle Mina, Greenbrier, and Madison. Local landmarks, including St James Ch, Moseys Chapel, and the Betz Spring, highlight the established social and natural points of interest in this North Alabama region.
