1974 Map of Ochlocknee
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
Ochlocknee and the neighboring community of Dawesville serve as the primary centers of gravity in this southwestern Georgia landscape, where the Seaboard Coast Line railroad dictates the local development pattern. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Horse Creek, Barnetts Creek, and Wilson Creek feeding into the Ochlocknee River. This 1974 survey captures a rural social geography anchored by numerous country churches such as Bold Springs Ch, Mt Nebo Ch, and Hadley Ch. Local industry and land use are evidenced by several clay pits and sandpits concentrated near the watercourses. Genealogists will find particular value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and resting places, such as the Hendry Cem, Montgomery Cem, and Walden Cem, which highlight the area's established family roots during the mid-1970s.
