1973 Map of Elberton West

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The granite quarrying industry of Northeast Georgia defines the landscape west of Elberton in this early 1970s survey. Scores of individual quarries and larger quarry complexes are clustered along the Seaboard Coast Line railroad, particularly near the small settlements of Ethridge and Oglesby. These rail-side operations highlight the region's primary economic driver, with industrial infrastructure like the substation and water tank supporting the heavy extraction and transport of stone.
