1978 Map of Hawkinsville

About this map

The Ocmulgee River carves a winding path through the center of this Georgia landscape, serving as a primary corridor for the regions of Hawkinsville and Cochran. The late 1970s environment is defined by its agricultural and transit networks, where the intersection of several railroads—including the Central, Georgia, and Southern lines—connected rural hubs like Marshallville and Vienna to the wider state economy. To the southwest, the waters of Blackshear Lake and Hogcrawl Creek highlight the importance of water management and recreation in the Middle Georgia coastal plain.
