1954 Map of Mableton

About this map

Mableton serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey of the Cobb and Fulton County line, capturing the area as it transitioned from rural agriculture to suburban expansion. The Chattahoochee River carves a path through the southern portion of the map, flanked by significant industrial developments like Industrial Boulevard and the operations at Fulton Co Airport (Brown Field). Historical footprints are visible in family landmarks like Orange Hill Mill and a collection of local burial grounds including Mable Cem, Gann Cem, and the Ruff Cem. The arrival of modern recreation and education is marked by the establishment of South Cobb High School, Camp Civitania, and the expansive Sweetwater Creek State Park, while the Southern Railway and Seaboard Coast Line continue to define the corridor's transport backbone.
