Summary:Page 6 from a series of township maps of Montgomery County, Alabama. The following are visible: the Alabama River, the city of Montgomery, Maxwell Air Force Base, Memorial Cemetery, Greater Washington Park, and the Westview Gardens and Beauvoir Gardens subdivisions. The page is signed by delineator Walter L.

Each of the township maps includes a list of property owners in the area that is also illustrated on the map itself.
