1948 Map of Mc Dowell

About this map

The Tombigbee River dominates this West Alabama landscape, winding through a complex network of wetlands and sharp oxbows including Twelvemile Bend and The Ravine. Before modern bridge infrastructure fully transformed the region, the McDowell Ferry served as a critical crossing point near the community of McDowell. The map illustrates a rural society deeply rooted in its local institutions, with numerous small schoolhouses like Snow Hill Sch and Belmont Sch alongside country churches such as Bucks Chapel and Mt Carmel Ch.
