1975 Map of Greenbrier

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Beaverdam Swamp and the dense wetlands of the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge define the southern landscape of this 1970s survey, illustrating the complex hydrology near the Tennessee River. In the fertile transition to the uplands, small agricultural settlements like Greenbrier and Belle Mina are connected by the Southern railroad and the Joe Wheeler Highway. The map reveals a high density of family and community landmarks, including Burgreen Gin and numerous small houses of worship such as Oakland Ch and Temple Ch. To the east, the encroaching corporate boundary of Huntsville and the expansion of Madison signal the region's shift from rural cotton-growing country to a suburban and industrial corridor. Local history is deeply etched into the land here through sites like Hundley Cem and Woodsides Cem, which remain as quiet anchors amid the changing terrain.
