1950 Map of Fortson

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Columbus expansion and mid-century industrial development characterize this 1950s survey of northern Muscogee County. The northern reaches maintain a rural character centered on Fortson and Nankipooh, defined by a network of country schools and churches such as Nancy Sch, Mount Gillion Ch, and Pierce Chapel. The transition toward the city is evident as residential areas like Green Island Hills and Crystal Valley begin to emerge near established infrastructure like the Muscogee County Airport.
