1948 Map of Triana
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The Tennessee River snakes through the heart of this North Alabama landscape, its waters widening into Wheeler Lake just as the post-war industrial and military footprint began to expand. This era captures the transition of the northern bank as the Huntsville Arsenal and Redstone Arsenal occupy vast tracts of land, bordered by the protective reach of the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge. South of the river, the terrain rises sharply toward Brindley Mountain, where isolated family settlements and rural landmarks like Talucah and Valhermoso Springs are mapped in detail. Genealogists will find a wealth of local landmarks including Draper Cem, Breeding Cem, and Union Sch, alongside prominent high points such as Bradford Mountain and Bald Mountain that overlook the river valley's complex network of creeks and springs.
