1974 Map of Pineboro

About this map

Spence Field occupies the southern reach of this landscape, its structured runways and facility layout contrasting with the surrounding agricultural and creek-cut terrain. This survey reflects the rural-industrial character of Colquitt County in the mid-1970s and 1980s, particularly near the edge of Moultrie. Evidence of industry is clear in the Industrial Waste Ponds located west of Indian Creek. Historically significant transport lines are visible through the Old Railroad Grade, which passes near Barbers in the northwest. Local life centers around a network of country churches and community centers like Pineboro, Norman Grove Ch, and Mt Olive Ch. The drainage patterns are defined by the Middle Prong Indian Creek and Reedy Creek, which supported local education at the Reedy Creek Sch.
