1921 Map of Appling

About this map

The Little River carves a winding path across this landscape, serving as a prominent boundary line between Columbia, Lincoln, and Wilkes counties. Based on surveys conducted just after World War I, the map reveals an intensely rural and communal network of early twentieth-century Georgia. Dense clusters of local institutions define the social geography, from Martins Academy and Jakes Academy in the north to the Whiteoak Camp Ground near the southern edge. This era was characterized by numerous small-scale education centers such as the Boydsville High School and China Hill School, alongside family-named landmarks like Stones Crossroads and Hogan Corner.
