1967 Map of Henson Springs

About this map

Henson Springs and Aston serve as focal points for this 1967 survey of northwestern Alabama, where the winding Buttahatchee River carves through a landscape of creek-fed hollows. The settlement pattern reflects a deeply rooted rural community, with family and congregation names dotting the terrain at sites like Cedar Grove Ch and the Cantrell Cem Webb Ch. One of the most intriguing historical markers is the Old Treaty Bdy in the northwest corner, a remnant of early 19th-century tribal land cessions that still influenced local property lines and surveying decades later.
