USGS Topo · Published 1944About this map
The complex confluence of the Tombigbee River and the Alabama River dominates this mid-century landscape, revealing a riverine economy built on numerous landings and remote plantations. Local maritime life is evidenced by Davis Ldg, Betts Lower Ldg, and Boathouse Ldg, which served as vital transit points for timber and cotton before the expansion of modern highways. Historic fortifications, including Old Ft Stoddard and Ft Mimms Ch, highlight the area's strategic importance in early Alabama history.
