1955 Map of Fairchild

About this map

Lake Seminole dominates the central landscape of this mid-1950s survey, marking the state line between Florida and Georgia along the Chattahoochee River. The map captures the transitional character of Seminole County and Jackson County, where the sprawling waterway meets a terrestrial environment dotted with family-named landmarks and rural institutions. Small communities like Fairchild and Drakes Still anchor the eastern shore, while the western side is defined by an intricate network of sinkhole ponds such as Buttonwood Pond and Half Moon Pond.
