About this map

The Ogeechee River defines the southwestern boundary of this Georgia landscape, its course marked by wetlands and landings such as Alderman Landing and Joe Cone Landing. This late 1930s survey reveals a rural society organized around an extensive network of named wagon roads, including the Augusta and Savannah Road and the Louisville Road. These thoroughfares connected established settlements like Springfield and Guyton to a series of country schools and churches that served as local anchors, such as Dasher School and Laurel Hill Church. The economic life of the era is evidenced by the rail lines of the Central of Georgia RR and the Georgia and Florida RR, which intersect the region's agricultural and timber lands. Smaller communities like Clyo, Pineora, and Marlow appear as vital stops along these transit corridors.
