1960 Map of Massey

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Brindley Mountain dominates the landscape of this 1960 survey, serving as a natural divide between the rugged uplands and the agricultural valleys of northern Alabama. This region, where Morgan Co meets Cullman Co, is defined by a dense network of small communities and rural religious centers such as Evergreen Church and Corinth Ch. The western edge of the map is anchored by the William B Bankhead National Forest, while the eastern portion highlights the settlement of Massey and the crossroads at Battleground. The mapping of the Old Tennessee Valley Road and the various gaps like Basham Gap and Parker Gap reveals the historical movement of people through these steep ridges. Cultural markers such as the Penn Cem and Campground Cem provide essential data for genealogists tracing family histories in the townships surrounding Crowdabout Creek.
