1906 Map of Crawfordville

About this map

The Broad River and Savannah River converge at the historic site of Petersburg, a once-vital river town at the northeast corner of this early twentieth-century landscape. This map captures a region defined by its waterway-driven economy and the transition to rail, with the Georgia RR serving southern settlements like Crawfordville and Barnett. A significant mining footprint is evident across the terrain, from the Columbia Mines and Tatham Mines near the river to the Fairy Ridge Mine further west.
