About this map

Old Kingston and the surrounding Autauga County countryside are captured here in the late 1980s, revealing a landscape defined by its network of creeks and small crossroads. The area is dominated by the winding course of Autauga Creek as it flows south toward Booth, while the eastern portion of the quadrangle is shaped by Bridge Creek and Bridge Creek Lake.

Evidence of local infrastructure is prominent, including a Wooden Pole Trans Line and multiple pipelines that cut across the rural terrain. For local historians, the map identifies established communities like Oak Grove and Poseys Crossroads, along with landmarks such as Mt Sinai and a local Sand Pit. This survey provides a clear view of the mid-century road network and the rural settlement patterns before the further expansion of the Montgomery metropolitan area.
