1971 Map of Rockledge

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Rockledge and the surrounding agricultural lands of the Laurens Co Treutlen Co line are defined by a network of creeks and small family settlements. The landscape transitions from the higher ground near Orianna down toward the Oconee River in the southwest, where river-bottom features like Muddy Slough and Steve Landing appear. Transportation in the early 1970s was anchored by the Seaboard Coast Line railroad, which cuts a straight path through the heart of the territory, connecting Orland with the neighboring communities. Local social and spiritual life is anchored by landmarks such as Norris Chapel, Red Bluff Ch, and the Mt Zion Cem. Significant water features, including Lake Helen and Peterson Pond, suggest the importance of local land management and water access in this rural Georgia corridor during the late twentieth century.
