1950 Map of Bowdens Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Brier Creek and its numerous tributaries, including Little Brier Creek and Reedy Creek, carve through this rural landscape at the junction of McDuffie, Warren, Jefferson, and Glascock Counties. The area is defined by a dense network of country roads, including the Savannah and Atlanta Road and Quaker Road, connecting scattered farmsteads and rural community centers. A notable concentration of community landmarks appears throughout the terrain, such as the combined Poplar Head Church and School and the remote Purvis School. Numerous family-named sites like Phillips Cemetery, Printup Cemetery, and Smith Cemetery provide specific geographic markers for genealogical research. Large water bodies such as Bowdens Pond, featuring its own Boat house, and Bradshaw Lake with its indicated Rapids, illustrate the importance of local waterways in the mid-century Georgia interior. The far eastern edge touches the Camp Gordon Military Reservation, showing the intersection of local agrarian life with federal military land use.
