1970 Map of Old Spring Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The settlement of Old Spring Hill and the southeastern outskirts of Demopolis define this rural landscape in Marengo County during the early 1970s. The map reveals a community structured by faith and tradition, with numerous rural congregations including Mt Canaan Ch, Nazareth of Galilee Ch, and St Lukes Ch dotting the terrain. The infrastructure of the era is evident through the path of the St Louis-San Francisco railroad and a network of pipelines and pumping stations that cut across the local drainage basins of Falling Creek and Double Creek. Natural water features like Lake Miriam and the winding course of French Creek suggest a landscape primarily shaped by agriculture and local hydrology. For genealogists and local historians, the inclusion of sites like the Memorial Garden (Cem) and smaller unnamed cemeteries provides essential points of reference for family research in this part of the Alabama Black Belt.
