1973 Map of Perry East

About this map

Perry serves as the primary hub of this Houston County landscape, where the confluence of several key waterways like Big Indian Creek and Southern Creek dictates the local geography. The map reveals a mix of civic infrastructure and rural industry, featuring the County Correctional Institute and the Pabst settlement along the Southern railroad line. To the east, the landscape transitions into a series of water bodies including Houston Lake, Mossy Lake, and Kersey Lake, reflecting the region's complex drainage system. Genealogy interests are well-served by the documentation of Evergreen Cem, Laidler Cem, and the Perry Memorial Gardens, alongside historic educational sites such as New Hope Sch and Kings Chapel Sch. Further south, the industrial imprint of a large Quarry near Clinchfield highlights the area's geological utility during the early 1970s.
