1974 Map of Sale City

About this map

Sale City anchors the southeastern corner of this Mitchell County landscape, where the Georgia Northern railroad cuts a diagonal line toward the small settlement of Greenough. The map documents a rural agricultural region defined by its watercourses and limestone topography, most notably the Oaky Sinks and the meandering path of Lost Creek as it flows toward the Ochlockonee River. This mid-1970s survey reveals a community deeply rooted in its local institutions, evidenced by the numerous country churches like Noahs Ark Ch, Zion Hill Ch, and Jerusalem Ch that dot the crossroads.
