1967 Map of Indian Mountain

About this map

Indian Mountain dominates the center of this landscape along the Alabama-Georgia border, marking a rugged terrain punctuated by small agricultural and mining communities in the late 1960s. The southern portion of the map reveals a heavy industrial and transit corridor where the Southern railroad connects Bluffton, Etna, and Prior. Local heritage is anchored by numerous rural assembly points, including Nazareth Ch, Hopewell Ch, and Bethel Ch, alongside small crossroads such as McCord Crossroads and Adams Crossroads. Distinctive topographical features like Flagpole Mtn and Shorty Mtn rise above the drainage of Spring Creek and Lumpkin Mill Creek. The presence of a Claypit near Wolfden Mtn and a Gravel Pit near Rocky Hollow indicates the area's continued reliance on local extractive resources during this era.
