1949 Map of Georgia

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Georgia serves as a central point in this mid-century survey of the Lawrence County and Orange County border, where the Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor dictates the placement of small rural hubs like Moorestown. The landscape is defined by the unique hydrology of the Lost River and a series of hollows—including Tincher Hollow, Benson Hollow, and Pruett Hollow—that carve through the terrain. Evidence of a self-contained rural society is visible in the numerous small churches and cemeteries, such as Spice Valley Ch, Bonds Chapel, and Isom Cem, which anchor the local families to their land.
