1955 Map of Reynoldsville

About this map

Jim Woodruff Reservoir (Flint River) dominates this mid-1950s landscape, with portions of the basin marked as under construction during the survey. This era defines a period of transition along the Spring Creek and Seminole and Decatur county border, as newly formed water bodies like Ray Lake Reservoir and Lake Decatur reshape the terrain. Local civic life is centered around the Spring Creek Courthouse and the FDR Sch, while numerous small cemeteries such as Thursby Cem and Cloud Cem provide essential data for genealogists tracing families from the Reynoldsville area.
