USGS Topo · Published 1961About this map
The Lavonia town center serves as the hub of this Northeast Georgia landscape, where the Southern Railway corridor links the community to Bowersville and beyond. The 1959 field survey captures a critical moment of transformation as the U.S. Corps of Engineers prepared for the inundation of the Tugaloo River valley. Blue hatching on the map indicates the anticipated shoreline of the Hartwell Reservoir, showing which low-lying lands along Gum Log Creek and Shoal Creek were slated for submergence at the 630-foot elevation.
