1972 Map of Benevolence

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Benevolence and Brooksville anchor this rural landscape in the early 1970s, situated where the borders of Stewart, Webster, and Randolph counties converge. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Ichawaynochaway Creek and its many tributaries, such as Lime Spring Branch and Soapstone Branch. This era shows a community rooted in its local institutions, with numerous country churches scattered across the hills, including Mt Olive Ch, Mt Pleasant Ch, and Mt Airy Ch. The Seaboard Coast Line railroad cuts diagonally across the northern and western sections, connecting small sidings and hamlets like Lester and Barges to the wider region. Small agricultural water features like Singer Pond and Goodwins Pond are interspersed among the drainages of Pataula Creek, illustrating the long-standing land use patterns of Southwest Georgia.
