About this map

Myrtlewood sits at the northern edge of this Marengo County landscape, where the Meridian and Bigbee railroad cuts across the timber and creek lands of west Alabama. The area is defined by an intricate drainage system including Beaver Creek and its many tributaries, such as Little Beaver Creek, Mill Creek, and the various branches of Double Creek. This 1970s survey captures a rural environment where industrial infrastructure like a Pumping Station, Compressor Station, and Gravel Pits exists alongside long-established community anchors. Genealogy researchers will find several localized landmarks, including James Chapel, Geneva Ch, and the Community Cem, which alongside the small settlement of Half Acre, illustrate the dispersed social fabric of the county during this era.
