About this map

Normantown and Mosleytown anchor this 1970 landscape, where the shifting boundaries of Treutlen, Montgomery, Toombs, and Emanuel counties meet. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Tiger Creek and Naked Creek, which drain the low-lying terrain into the larger Swift Creek. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of the early 1970s, documented shortly after the consolidation of regional rail lines.

Genealogists will find a significant distribution of family-named landmarks and community centers, from the Mc Leod Grave and Pidgeon Springs Cem to local congregations like Mt Shady Ch and Ruth Chapel. The southern edge of the map shows the routes of the Seaboard Coast Line and the Central of Georgia railroads, providing a clear record of the transportation corridors that historically supported these small Georgia settlements.
