1949 Map of Tutwiler School

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Tutwiler School and its surrounding community anchor this mid-century look at the ridge-and-valley landscape along the borders of Walker and Tuscaloosa counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses including Indian Creek and White Oak Creek, which feed into the Black Warrior River and the expansive Bankhead Lake in the southeast. While local life centered around rural gathering points like Reynolds Sch and Cedar Creek Ch, the 1970s revisions to this map reveal the encroaching industrial footprint of a significant Strip Mine south of Three Forks. Family-named landmarks such as Thompson Mtn and Wallace Hill rise above the drainage basins, while the High Hill Fire Tower stands as a prominent lookout over the wooded hills of the Black Warrior basin during the post-war era.
