1964 Map of Luella

About this map

The Southern railroad tracks bisect this Georgia landscape, connecting the small settlement of Luella to the surrounding agricultural and timber lands of Henry and Spalding counties. This mid-century survey illustrates a rural economy centered on the river networks of the Towaliga River and Towaliga Creek, where the presence of Steeles Mill and Walker Mill indicates a long-standing reliance on water power. The area's social fabric is visible through its dispersed country churches like Hosanna Ch and Teamon Ch, alongside family-named burial grounds such as Pullin Cem and Manley Cem.
