1967 Map of Indian Mountain

About this map

Indian Mountain dominates the southern landscape of this border region where Alabama meets Georgia, acting as a natural divide between the northern agricultural valleys and the industrial mining corridors to the south. The rural settlement patterns of the late 1960s are evident in the clustering of McCord Crossroads and Adams Crossroads, while the southern edge of the map reveals the heavy footprint of the Southern railroad. This rail line connects the small communities of Bluffton, Tecumseh, and Etna, which historically served the local mineral extraction and timber interests. Throughout the hills, numerous country churches such as Pilgrims Rest Ch, Bethel Ch, and Nazareth Ch anchor the social geography of the area. Significant watercourses like Forney Creek and Lumpkin Mill Creek provide the primary drainage for the ridgeline, which is marked by prominent peaks including Wolfden Mtn and Flagpole Mtn.
