1969 Map of Newell

About this map

The Little Tallapoosa River carves a winding path through the borderlands of Cleburne and Randolph Counties in the late 1960s. This rural landscape is defined by its small crossroads settlements and a dense network of community landmarks. Morrison Crossroad and Newell serve as local hubs, while Gold Ridge and Lamar anchor the outlying districts. The presence of numerous spiritual and educational sites, such as Antioch Ch, Harmony Ch, and the Mt Carmel Sch, suggests a deeply rooted local culture centered on family and faith. Genealogists will find particular value in the distribution of cemeteries, including Old Cool Spring Cem and the Smyrna Cem. The economy of the era is evidenced by small-scale resource extraction, with a Mine near Wolf Creek and several Sandpits located along the river bends south of Mt Gilead Ch.
