USGS Topo · Published 1932About this map
The Chattahoochee River forms a jagged natural boundary between Alabama and Georgia, defined in the early 1900s by a series of vital river crossings including Houston Ferry, Blanton Ferry, and Dixon Ferry. These ferries served as critical economic links between textile manufacturing centers like Lanett and West Point before modern bridges standardized regional travel. The landscape is deeply etched by a network of creeks—such as Osanippa Creek and Halawakee Creek—which supported numerous small-scale industries like Wands Mill and Jackson Mill.
