About this map

The Coosa River corridor serves as the central artery of this landscape, where the 1970s expansion of Logan Martin Lake dramatically reshaped the shoreline near Logan Martin Dam. This survey documents a rural environment transitioning through water management, featuring several prominent peaks such as Stracener Mtn and Norman Mtn that overlook the river valley. The infrastructure of the Seaboard Coast Line railroad cuts across the southern portion of the map, linking small settlements like Grasmere and Lanier. Local genealogy and community history are well-preserved through numerous landmarked institutions, including Mt Zion Sch, Kings Chapel Sch, and a variety of rural churches such as Evening Star Ch and St Campbell Ch. This specific edition is particularly notable for its purple overprint, which distinguishes established mid-century features from early 1970s developments in the terrain and river heights.
