1964 Map of Mc Donough

About this map

McDonough serves as the focal point of this mid-1960s survey of Henry County, exhibiting the expansion of the town center alongside established rural landmarks. The landscape is defined by its watercourses, including Walnut Creek, Camp Creek, and the southern flow of the Towaliga River. Cultural and religious centers are scattered throughout the countryside, with several historically significant congregations such as Salem Ch, Mt Olive Ch, and Philadelphia Ch anchoring their respective communities. The Southern railroad line cuts through the terrain, connecting the settlement of Flippen to the commercial hub of McDonough. Genealogists will find particular value in the numerous family-named burial grounds and meeting places, including Brannan Cem, Cleveland Cem, and the Shingle Roof Campground. The map also captures infrastructure developments like the Radio Facility and a Landing Strip, signaling the area's gradual shift toward modern utility while maintaining its agricultural character.
