1973 Map of Vredenburgh

About this map

The timber and transit corridor of the Wilcox and Monroe County line defines this landscape during the early 1970s. The settlement of Vredenburgh serves as a central hub, where a small Landing Strip and the tracks of the Seaboard railroad reflect a mid-century infrastructure for moving goods and people through this rural stretch of Alabama. The map reveals a community structured around small rural congregations and family burial grounds, such as Wayman Chapel near Bellview and Mt Zion Ch to the north.
