1974 Map of Cairo North

About this map

Cairo serves as the focal point of this South Georgia landscape, where a dense grid of numbered avenues such as 4th Ave NW and 12th Ave NE gives way to a network of creeks and rural outposts. The southern edge of the survey is defined by the Seaboard Coast Line railroad and local institutions like the County Prison Farm and the Greenwood Cemetery. Beyond the town limits, the geography is shaped by the numerous branches of Tired Creek and Barnetts Creek, which carve through the terrain toward smaller settlements like Akridge and Capel. Several country churches, including Pine Level Ch and New Zion Ch, anchor the rural communities, while the Cairo-Grady County Airport and Radio Tower (WGRA) represent the infrastructure of the mid-1970s.
