About this map

The Middle Fork Salt River and its numerous tributaries, such as Duck Creek and Brush Creek, define the landscape of northern Macon County during the late 1970s. The city of Macon anchors the southern edge of the survey, where regional infrastructure like the Norfolk and Western railroad and local recreational sites including the Golf Course and Hillcrest Memorial Gardens are established. To the north, the creation of Long Branch Lake has altered the terrain, surrounded by the Atlanta State Wildlife Area. This era shows a transition from traditional rural patterns to modern water management and conservation. Small, established communities like Axtell and Kellogg are documented alongside numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Bellview Cem, Liberty Cem, and Powell Cem, which provide essential touchpoints for genealogical research and local history.
