1973 Map of Gumm Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Oconee River carves a winding path through the center of this landscape, marking the tri-county meeting point of Baldwin, Wilkinson, and Washington counties. In the early 1970s, this region was characterized by an intricate network of wetlands and oxbow lakes, including Peachtree Lake, Steel Trap Lake, and the expansive Gumm Pond. The map reveals a land defined by its water and industrial extraction, with numerous Claypits and associated tailings ponds concentrated in the eastern uplands. Local life is anchored by rural landmarks such as Gumm Hill Church and Olive Hill Church, while the small settlement of Hebron sits near the eastern boundary. Notable topographic details like Beech Ridge and the Big Bend of the river highlight the natural meanders of the Oconee, while features like a Flowing Well suggest the depth of local water resources during this era.
