1971 Map of Rockledge

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Oconee River defines the southwestern corner of this landscape, where bottomlands like Muddy Slough and Cross Slough meet the river at Stave Landing. Much of the area is characterized by a network of drainage systems, including Hurricane Creek and Elias Branch, which feed into the wider basin. The map documents a period of significant infrastructure development in rural Laurens and Treutlen counties, clearly marking a major roadway as under construction across the center of the sheet. Small agricultural communities and gathering points are scattered throughout, anchored by local institutions such as Norris Chapel, Red Bluff Ch, and Blue Spring Ch. The Seaboard Coast Line railroad runs northwest to southeast, providing a transit spine that connects Rockledge, Orland, and the nearby Boy Scout Camp. Natural water features like Graham Ponds and Blue Spring highlight the hydrologic character of this Coastal Plain region.
