1957 Map of Tanner Williams

About this map

Big Creek Lake dominates the upper half of this Mobile County landscape, its expansive waters fed by a network of local streams including Big Creek and Hamilton Creek. The community of Tanner Williams serves as a western anchor, surrounded by family landmarks such as Dees Cem, Williams Cem, and Tanner Cem that reflect deep generational ties to the land. Moving south toward the settlement of Seven Hills, the terrain transitions into a more developed infrastructure marked by the Pipeline Aqueduct and Government Street. This 1957 record, later updated with 1980s aerial data, provides a clear view of the area's rural character before the expansion of the Mobile suburbs, preserving the locations of country institutions like Pierce Ch, Foster Grove Ch, and the Baker Sch.
