1973 Map of Napier Pond

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Little Black Creek and its many tributaries, including Thompson Branch and Laurel Branch, define this wooded landscape along the border of Baldwin and Wilkinson Counties. The map documents a rural Georgia community in the early 1970s, characterized by numerous small family cemeteries and country churches. A massive Clay Pit and associated Tailings Pond indicate the importance of the local kaolin or clay industry, which physically reshaped the terrain near Lords Branch. These industrial excavations stand in contrast to the natural curves of the Oconee River and the scattered fishing spots such as Napier Pond, Goldens Pond, and White Lake. Genealogists will find significant value in the detailed placement of family burial grounds like the Price-Council-Carr Cem and Nunn-Wheeler Cem, as well as local landmarks like Peeler Chapel and Macedonia Ch.
