About this map

Callahan serves as a central hub in Nassau County on this 1970s record, defined by the intersection of major rail lines and local roads. The town's layout is centered around the Seaboard Coast Line and the Georgia Southern and Florida railroads, reflecting its historical significance as a junction point. To the north lies Dyal, while the small settlement of Ratliff is positioned to the south near the Nassau Co Duval Co boundary.

The landscape is marked by numerous watercourses including Alligator Creek, Mills Creek, and Little Mills Creek, which drain the low-lying terrain. Local landmarks such as the Fairgrounds, Live Oak Ch, and Jones Cem provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians. This era shows the community's established infrastructure, from the Golf Course in the southeast to the Radio Tower and Water Tank that supported the growing municipality.
