1963 Map of Monticello

About this map

Monticello serves as the focal point of this Jefferson County landscape during the early 1960s, showing a community structured around the Courthouse and the Seaboard Air Line railroad. The town's social fabric is visible through institutions like Howard Academy and the County High Sch, while the outskirts are dotted with family and community landmarks such as Roseland Cem and Sneeds Cem. The survey reveals a rural economy transitioning through the mid-century, where agricultural fields are interspersed with wetlands along Wolf Creek and Hay Pond.
