About this map

Cassville and the surrounding Bartow County countryside are captured here in the early 1970s, a landscape shaped by rural crossroads and early industrial excavations. The area is marked by numerous family and community landmarks, including the Corra Harris Home Grave in the northeast and several small country churches like Towe Chapel and Best Chapel. The L & N railroad line cuts a straight path through the center of the sheet, reflecting the historical importance of rail transport for moving local resources.

Water systems define much of the terrain, from Little Pine Log Creek to the larger Aubrey Lake. Small-scale industry is evident in the scattered Gravel Pits and a Quarry south of Crow Spring. This survey provides a clear view of the transition between agrarian life and the growing infrastructure near White and Grassdale before significant modern development altered these traditional community footprints.
