1964 Map of Dawsonville

About this map

Dawsonville serves as the focal point of this mid-1960s survey, surrounded by a network of small agricultural and river-based settlements along the Etowah River. The landscape is defined by the winding river and its numerous tributaries, such as Shoal Creek and Toto Creek, which shaped the early development of Lumpkin and Dawson counties. The map captures a transition point in rural Georgia, showing established family landmarks like the Palmer Cem and Martin Cem alongside newer infrastructure like the Hightower State Nursery.
