1964 Map of Ayersville

About this map

Ayersville and Mount Airy anchor this map of north Georgia, where the foothills are carved by the Middle Fork Broad River and Hazel Creek. The landscape is a transition between small rural communities and the protected woods of the Chattahoochee National Forest. Evidence of local mountain life appears in the many small congregations like Antioch Ch, Chopped Oak Ch, and Mt Bethel Ch, alongside the Hazel Grove School. The Southern Railway tracks cut across the terrain, serving the settlements that grew along its path. Strategic high points are well-defined, notably Currahee Mountain, which is topped by a lookout tower and radio facility. To the south, the Lake Russell State Wildlife Management Area encompasses landmarks like Camp Robert Toombs and Nancy Town Lake, reflecting the region's managed wilderness character.
