About this map

Chickasawhatchee Creek bisects this rural landscape at the junction of Calhoun, Dougherty, and Terrell Counties, marking an Indefinite Boundary through dense bottomlands. The early 1970s environment is characterized by a network of agricultural lands and wetlands, punctuated by several community focal points like Gillionville and Holt. Near the southern edge, the Central of Georgia railroad corridor runs parallel to a Radio Tower and St Paul Ch.

A series of small country churches, including Salem Ch, Spring Creek Ch, and Pleasant Hill Ch, are distributed along the light-duty road network, suggesting the established social fabric of the era. Water features such as Tallahassee Creek, Spring Creek, and Yancey Pond drain the terrain, while smaller family-named landmarks like Horse Lot Branch and Viney Branch provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking family landholdings in this part of Georgia.
