1967 Map of Necessity

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Necessity serves as the focal point for this landscape in the late 1960s, where the rural character of Stephens County is defined by its water resources and elevation. The western portion of the sheet is dominated by the reservoir at Lake Daniel, featuring Cemetery Point and Goat Island, while the smaller Lake Necessity sits to the east. The terrain is marked by prominent rises such as Beaver Mountain and Easy Steal Mountain, which overlook a network of creeks including Hitson Branch and Little Cedar Creek. Social and industrial history is visible through the presence of the Union Hill Ch, Saints Rest Cem, and a Community Center. An Old RR Grade cutting through the center reveals former transportation corridors, while numerous gravel pits and pipelines indicate the area's ongoing natural resource extraction during this period.
