1972 Map of Walnut Grove

About this map

Walnut Grove serves as the primary hub of this landscape, situated along the line of the Gulf Mobile and Ohio railroad. The settlement pattern is defined by the intersection of rail transport and the managed waterways of the Tuscolameta Canal, which cuts a straight path across the winding routes of Tuscolameta Creek and Shockaloo Creek. This era reveals a community deeply rooted in its local institutions, evidenced by the numerous country churches and family burial grounds such as Lindsey Cem and Johnson Chapel Cem that dot the countryside.
