1947 Map of Henagar
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
Sand Mountain dominates this portion of Northeast Alabama, where the plateau landscape is carved by numerous drainages like Bryant Creek and Lick Creek. At the northern edge, the Tennessee River enters Guntersville Lake, bounded by the Guntersville Reservation Boundary. This 1947 survey, later updated with 1972 aerial data, captures the rural network of agricultural communities including Pisgah, Rosalie, and Henagar. The map reveals a high density of local landmarks essential for genealogical research, from the Lambert Chapel and Kings Chapel in the west to New Home Church and Mt Pisgah Ch further east. Industrial and natural features such as Morris Mill, a Strip Mine, and the Saltpetre Cave near Coon Creek offer a look at how the local economy and geography influenced settlement patterns before the modern expansion of these plateau towns.
