1970 Map of Romulus

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Sipsey River carves a winding path through this West Alabama landscape, defining the borders of Pickens, Greene, and Tuscaloosa Counties. Around 1970, the area remained largely rural, centered on small crossroads and family-named landmarks. The settlement of Buhl sits near the northern boundary, supported by the flow of Hammer Mill Creek and Caledonia Creek. Further south, the map documents the quiet communities of Jena and Romulus, where life was anchored by local congregations at Pleasant Grove Ch and New Hope Ch. A network of family histories is preserved in the location of Pate Cem and Caledonia Cem. Evidence of past industry and transport is visible in the Old Railroad Grade that cuts across the terrain, marking the path of former commerce long after the tracks themselves were gone.
