1966 Map of Kosse East

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Southern Pacific rail line cuts across the northwest corner of this Limestone County landscape, serving the settlement of Kosse. This survey, based on 1965 photography with 1970s revisions, illustrates a rural topography defined by an intricate network of creeks and branches. A cluster of historic community sites surrounds Kosse, including the Eutaw Cem and Eutaw Ch, while the Kosse Cem sits just south of the town center. The landscape is dotted with family-named landmarks and cemeteries, such as Sowders Cem, Moss Cem, and Buttrill Cem, reflecting generations of settlement along the waterways of Big Steele Creek and Gentry Creek. Farther south, the Shady Grove Ch and Shady Grove Cem mark a distinct local hub, and the appearance of an Oil Well and Gas Well indicates the integration of energy extraction into the agricultural life of the region.
