2017 Map of Atlanta

About this map

Atlanta and the smaller settlement of Economy anchor this portion of Macon County, where the agricultural landscape is shaped by the winding courses of the Middle Fork Salt River and its numerous tributaries. The terrain is a network of ridges and drainages, characterized by creeks such as Linn Br, Willow Br, and Bear Cr. Local genealogy and land use patterns are evidenced by the presence of Hardgrove Cem and Shiloh Cem, alongside local landmarks like Love Lake and Atlanta City Lake. The road network is organized largely along section lines, with many routes bearing family or descriptive names like Leopard Ave, Katydid St, and Kiln Rd. This survey captures a moment in the modern era where traditional rural boundaries persist alongside contemporary infrastructure, providing a detailed record of water features and secondary roads essential for local history research.
