1971 Map of Skinnerton

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Skinnerton and the surrounding pine-clad hills of the coastal plain were documented in detail during the early 1970s. This rural landscape on the border of Monroe and Conecuh Counties is defined by a network of winding waterways, most notably Murder Creek and the West Sepulga River. The map reveals a community-focused settlement pattern anchored by numerous rural churches, such as Savanna Ch and New Hope Ch, alongside scattered homesteads connected by unpaved roads and forest tracks. A prominent landmark of the era is the McWilliams Lookout Tower, which surveyed the timberlands from a high point in the northeast. Small hamlets like Riley and Midway serve as the primary nodes of activity in this quiet, timber-producing region, showing the continuity of local land use and family settlements before more modern development reached the area.
