1971 Map of Dellwood

About this map

Blundale and Dellwood anchor this 1970s landscape where the rural church and family cemetery remain the primary social landmarks. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the Ohoopee River and the winding Sardis Creek, which dictate the placement of roads and homesteads across the Johnson Co Emanuel Co line. An Old Railroad Grade running north to south reflects a changing transportation network, as the rails that once connected these rural communities had been replaced by secondary highways by the time of this 1971 survey. Genealogists and local historians can locate several historic houses of worship, such as Bethel Ch, Cowford Ch, and Bithynia Ch. Small-scale aviation is represented by a remote Landing Strip, while the area's agricultural and timber character is visible through the Indefinite Boundary lines and creek systems like Crooked Creek and Yam Grandy Creek.
