1966 Map of Benedict

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Treat Mountain and Dugdown Mountain dominate the southern landscape of this mid-1960s survey, where the boundary between Polk and Haralson counties follows the high ridgelines. The northern reaches show a more developed rural character, anchored by the Seaboard Coast Line railroad and the small settlement of Benedict. This era captures a network of country churches and schools that served the surrounding agricultural and timber lands, including the Blooming Grove Ch near Fullwood Springs and the Brewster Sch along the rail line. Small-scale aviation and industry are evidenced by a Landing Strip near Johnson Lake and a prominent Substation. Water features like Pumpkin Pile Creek and Cedar Creek wind through the valleys, supporting numerous small impoundments such as Pettit Lake and Vance Lake, which reflect the localized land management and recreation patterns of the period.
