1964 Map of Idlewood

About this map

The eastern outskirts of Waynesboro and the rural Burke County landscape come into focus during the mid-1960s, a period characterized by small crossroads settlements and a dense network of country churches. The Central Georgia railroad cuts through the western edge of the map, while an Old Railroad Grade serves as a reminder of former transit lines through the pine-dotted terrain. This survey provides an invaluable record for genealogists, as it identifies numerous local landmarks including Watkinville Ch, Second Springfield Ch, and the Asbury Ch with its adjacent cemetery.
