1971 Map of Pineland

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Pineland serves as the central settlement point in this topographic study of the south Georgia lowlands near the Clinch Co Echols Co boundary. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of wetlands and shallow basins, including Flag Pond, Savannah Bay, and the uniquely named Gopher Lope. These watery features are interconnected by Suwannoochee Creek and Toms Creek, where historical crossings like Brown Ford and Martha Johns Ford provided vital passage through the marshy terrain. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade running through the northeastern sector suggests a history of timber extraction or transport that once moved through this densely wooded region. From the Lookout Tower near the county line to the unusual geological feature of Georgia Sink, the map captures a pocket of the Deep South where drainage patterns and local hammocks, such as Martin Hammock, dictated the placement of roads and homesteads.
