1965 Map of Bleecker

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Central of Georgia railroad corridor anchors this mid-century view of Lee County, connecting the small communities of Salem, Shotwell, and Bleecker. This rural landscape is defined by its numerous creek systems, including the winding Little Uchee Creek and Wacoochee Creek, which historically dictated the placement of early infrastructure like the Covered Bridge located north of Shotwell. Social centers of the era are clearly marked by a high density of country churches and schools, such as the Wacoochee High Sch and Antioch Ch. Local industry and commerce are represented by Moffits Mill and a Sand and Gravel Pit near the western edge of the quadrangle. These features, along with crossings like Prince Crossroads and Meadows Crossroads, illustrate a traditional Alabama settlement pattern where road junctions and water power sites formed the backbone of the community before the modern highway era dominated the region.
