1973 Map of Blakely North

About this map

Kolomoki Mounds State Park dominates the northern landscape of this Early County survey, preserving the significant Indian Mounds and the waters of Lake Kolomoki and Lake Yohola. South of these ancient sites, the town of Blakely serves as a hub of activity, with its traditional street grid featuring Main Street and Columbia St, anchored by the central Courthouse and City Hall. The area's mid-century rural infrastructure is well-defined, showing the Central of Georgia railroad line cutting through the terrain and the localized community focus around Ferrell Crossroads. Genealogists and local historians will find a network of community landmarks including St Matthews Ch, Enterprise Ch, and the Mecier Cem. The landscape is a mix of agricultural clearings and dense drainage networks like Little Kolomoki Creek and Breastworks Branch, reflecting the traditional geography of southwest Georgia.
