1972 Map of Uriah East

About this map

Uriah and Goodway anchor this pocket of Monroe County during the early 1970s, as depicted in this survey updated in the mid-1980s. The landscape is defined by the intersection of three counties—Monroe, Conecub, and Escambia—and the presence of the Little River State Forest. The Burlington Northern line runs north-south through the center of the sheet, while an Old RR Grade to the east reflects shifts in the local rail infrastructure over time. The rural character of the area is underscored by numerous spiritual and civic landmarks, including Oak Grove Ch, Enon Ch, and Coley Chapel. Along the western edge near Uriah, the presence of a Gravel Pit and Middle Sch suggests a local economy tied to natural resources and community-building, while Little River Lake and its surrounding forest provide a preserved greenbelt in the southern reaches.
