1973 Map of Macon NE

About this map

Clinton and Gray anchor the northern landscape of this Jones County region during the early 1970s, where the rural terrain begins to transition into the urban reach of Macon at the southern edge. The Central of Georgia railroad cuts through the eastern hills, passing the small settlement at Morton and the industrial activity near a local Quarry. This era of the Piedmont landscape shows a significant concentration of family and community heritage sites, including the Henderson-Stripling Cem and Moore Cem, alongside landmarks of local education like the Mattie Wells Sch. Water features such as Rock Creek and the Walnut Creek drainage define the topography, while recreational and memorial spaces like Camp Joycliff and the Middle Georgia Memorial Gardens reflect the evolving land use as the suburbs of Macon expanded northward.
