1958 Map of Haleyville East

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Tennessee Valley Divide cuts across the northern reaches of this Winston County landscape, marking a significant hydrological boundary just above Haleyville. To the south, the terrain falls away into the headwaters of the Buttahatchee River and the deeply dissected valleys of the William B Bankhead National Forest. This 1958 field-checked map illustrates a rural economy rooted in timber and extraction, with Strip Mine operations and gravel pits scattered near the Southern railroad line. Small rural hubs and family-named landmarks like DeFoor and Needmore anchor the backcountry, while a dense network of country churches—including Macedonia Ch, Beech Grove Ch, and Walker Chapel—provides a clear record of local social geography. Notable topographic features like the Bear Tush Lookout Tower stand over the western ridges, overseeing a transition from the structured street grid of Haleyville to the winding paths of the Yankee Trace.
