About this map

Mount Meigs and the surrounding central Alabama landscape are captured in this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, which uses aerial photography to detail the patchwork of fields and timberlands east of Montgomery. This specific format reveals the exact vegetation patterns and land use of the era, showing the transition from traditional agricultural plots to larger cleared tracts. The settlement of Waugh sits near the northern boundary, while Pike Road occupies the southwestern quadrant, illustrating the spread of rural communities along established thoroughfares. The inclusion of Mc Dade provides a precise look at these smaller unincorporated locales as they appeared before modern suburban expansion began to reshape the outskirts of the state capital. Unlike traditional line-drawn maps, this photographic survey allows researchers to see the actual farmstead structures and woodland boundaries that defined the rural South during this period.
