1947 Map of Mason Bend

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The Black Warrior River dominates this mid-century landscape, carving deep oxbows and bends along the border of Greene and Hale counties. This 1947 revision reveals a rural economy centered on the river and its fertile floodplains, marked by numerous landings and quarters such as Walden Quarters and Jackson Quarters. The importance of the waterway for transport is evidenced by Lock No 6 and various riverfront sites like Lake Bend Landing and East Port Landing.
