1971 Map of Sylvan Springs

Smaller residential pockets like Sylvan Springs, Maytown, and Praco are scattered among the ridges and creek valleys, offering a look at community life during this era. Genealogists will find several family-named landmarks and burial sites, such as Atwood Cem and Salter Cem, along with the Williamsburg Ch near Porter. The transition from river-bottom industry at Nichols Shoals to the residential elevations of Booker Heights illustrates the distinct social and economic geography of Jefferson County before further suburban development.
