1972 Map of Rockville

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Rockville serves as the focal point of this rural landscape, situated near the confluence of the Oconee River and the expanding waters of Lake Sinclair. The settlement pattern in this corner of Putnam County is defined by its small community centers and country churches, including St Pauls Ch and Mt Zion Ch. To the north, the emergence of Lake Oconee is noted by revisions to the terrain where Greene, Hancock, and Putnam Counties meet. This survey provides a precise look at the transition from traditional woodland and creek-bottom farming to a reservoir-dominated environment. Notable local landmarks like the Rockville Lookout Tower and Jenkins Grove Chapel stand alongside numerous smaller tributaries such as Sandy Run and Cattail Branch, illustrating the area's intricate drainage before the river's character was permanently altered by downstream impoundments.
