1959 Map of Westover

About this map

Agricultural lands and small crossroads communities characterize this 1959 survey of western Madison County, where the rural landscape is defined by its churches, schools, and stream networks. The Gulf Mobile And Ohio Railroad cuts diagonally through the terrain, serving small rural junctions like Neely and passing near the Denmark settlement. Education and faith were central to the area's development, evidenced by the distribution of local institutions such as Upper Ingram Sch, Oak Grove Ch, and Blairs Chapel.
