1971 Map of Range

About this map

The Louisville and Nashville railroad anchors this rural corridor in the early 1970s, cutting southwest through a landscape defined by the winding waters of Burnt Corn Creek and Brushy Creek. Centered on the settlement of Range (Deer Range Sta) and the nearby crossroads of Lenox, the map reveals a deeply rooted community structure maintained by small country churches and family-named landmarks. The terrain transitions across the Conecuh and Escambia county line, where the bottomlands of Little Escambia Creek meet the surrounding timber and sand-extraction sites. Local history is preserved in the locations of Baggetts Chapel, Ramah Ch, and Bethel Ch, alongside rural industrial markers like Janes Mill and various Sandpits.
