1973 Map of Morgan

About this map

The town of Morgan serves as the focal point of this rural Southwest Georgia landscape, situated at a road junction just west of the winding Ichawaynochaway Creek. In the early 1970s, the area's agricultural and communal character is evident through a network of country churches including Mt Nebo Ch, Mt Carmel Ch, and Elam Ch. Significant local landmarks include the Singelton Jr High Sch in Morgan and the namesake pond and infrastructure at Cordrays Mill to the northeast. The terrain is defined by a complex drainage system where Falling Creek, Pruitt Creek, and Merrett Creek feed into the larger Ichawaynochaway, while Pachitla Creek and Little Creek carve through the western reaches. This survey documents the rural persistence of Calhoun County, highlighting scattered family and community centers such as Cordray Ch and St Peters Ch alongside industrial and safety features like a Lookout Tower and various electrical substations.
