1959 Map of Summerfield

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Cahaba River winds through the western reaches of this landscape, defining a terrain of floodplains and tributary creeks just before the turn of the 1960s. The settlement at Sprott and the crossroads of Cleveland Mills serve as local anchors, while the eastern portion of the sheet is dominated by the dense woodlands of the Talladega National Forest. Numerous small country congregations and burial grounds, such as New Hope Ch and Bethany Cem, are scattered across the ridges, providing a clear map of rural community life in this part of Perry and Dallas Counties. The presence of the Dallas Lookout Tower and the Microwave Tower near the Chilton County line illustrates the infrastructure of the era. To the south, Summerfield and Suttle mark established residential clusters connected by a network of unimproved and light-duty roads through the Oakmulgee Creek valley.
