1978 Map of Moultrie

About this map

The Ochlockonee River and Okapilco Creek converge south of the city, anchoring a landscape where agricultural heritage meets growing industrial footprints. During the late 1970s, Moultrie served as a significant rail hub, with the Georgia Northern and Seaboard Coast Line tracks intersecting in the town center. The industrial sector is evidenced by several Industrial Waste Ponds and a Substation north of the main settlement. Genealogy researchers can locate several family and community landmarks, including Strong Cem and Pinecrest Memorial Cem, alongside local schools like Okapilco Sch and Cox Sch. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade near Sloans Creek provides a tangible link to the area's changing transportation infrastructure, while local recreation is noted at the Sunset Country Club and the Fairgrounds on the eastern edge of town.
