1955 Map of Seale

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Fort Mitchell and the surrounding borderlands of East Alabama come to life in this mid-century topographic survey, where the Chattahoochee River defines the landscape's eastern edge. The map captures a transition from the developing urban sprawl of Phenix City in the north to the more agrarian communities of Seale and Oswichee to the south. This era is marked by a high density of rural institutions, such as Hilliards Chapel, Friendship Sch, and Uchee Hill Ch, reflecting a deeply established network of local communities. The Central of Georgia Railway cuts a prominent path through the terrain, connecting various settlements and serving as an industrial backbone near Brickyard and Flournoy. Extensive waterways like Uchee Creek and its many bridges, including Big Uchee Bridge, illustrate a landscape shaped by drainage and transport needs just before the massive infrastructure shifts of the late 20th century.
