1948 Map of Moontown

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Flint River meanders through this portion of Madison County, Alabama, defining a valley bordered by the heights of Drake Mountain and Keel Mountain. In the late 1940s, this landscape was characterized by small agricultural settlements and family-named hollows like Potts Hollow and Mills Hollow. The community of Moontown sits near the river's edge, while Lickskillet occupies higher ground to the south. Educational and religious life centered on local landmarks such as Big Cove School, Berkley Sch, and Beech Grove Church.
