About this map

Cooleewahee Creek and Kiokee Creek flow through a landscape of wetlands and timbered tracts west of the growing city of Albany. In the late twentieth century, this region remained largely agricultural, characterized by its numerous small community centers and country churches. The small settlement of Pretoria sits in the south near the intersection of Tarva Rd, while Walker and Lockett Crossing mark local junctions further north. Several significant landmarks speak to the local infrastructure of the era, including the State Plant Nursery and the West Dougherty Community House. Evidence of rural social life is found in the distribution of religious sites like Mossy Grove Ch, Oak Hill Ch, and Oak Grove Ch, which served the farming families scattered between the lowland swamps and higher ground.
