1943 Map of Spring Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Spring Hill and its surrounding uplands west of Mobile appear here as they were surveyed just before World War II. The landscape is a mix of educational landmarks like Spring Hill College and essential municipal infrastructure, including the Bienville Pumping Sta and the Mobile Waterworks. Small agrarian and suburban pockets such as Wheelerville, Orchard, and Cottage Hill are connected by significant early thoroughfares like the Old Spanish Trail and Howells Ferry Road. Numerous community anchors are documented, from Vincent Chapel to the County Sanitarium, providing a window into the social and civic geography of Mobile County. The presence of the Mobile Airport and the Gulf Mobile and Ohio railroad corridor highlights the area's role as a growing transportation hub during this era.
