1954 Map of Wiergate

About this map

Wiergate and Burkeville anchor the southern reaches of this 1950s Newton County landscape, where the local economy was shifting away from the heavy timber rail operations of previous decades. A prominent Dismantled railroad bisects the terrain, tracing a north-south path through the timbered hills and across numerous drainages like Bear Branch and Little Cow Creek. This corridor once served the regional lumber industry, and its path remains a primary structural feature of the rural landscape.
