1953 Map of Kushla

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Kushla and Eight Mile anchor this mid-century portrait of Mobile County, where the Gulf Mobile and Ohio railroad corridor dictates the local geography. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Chickasaw Creek and its many tributaries, including Reedbreak Creek and Seabury Creek. Smaller rural hubs like Smithtown and Mauvilla are interspersed with several country houses of worship, such as Mt Pilgrim Ch and St Johns Chapel, providing a clear view of the area's social fabric and settlement patterns before modern suburban expansion. For those researching local families, the map specifically identifies the Indian Springs Cem and Mauvilla Cem, as well as industrial features like a Sand Pit and the Gaging Station on the creek bank.
