1962 Map of Sandersville

About this map

Sandersville and neighboring Tennille anchor this mid-century look at the Georgia coastal plain, where the industrial presence of the Central of Georgia railway intersects with the region's agricultural and mining history. The map records a landscape shaped by local water resources, featuring numerous family-named landmarks such as Anderson Pond and Cedar Meadow Pond, alongside a dedicated Fish Hatchery and a large Settling Basin indicative of local mineral extraction. A network of country churches and schools, including Limestone Ch, Sisters Ch, and Crawford Sch, underscores the established rural communities surrounding the county seat. Notable civic infrastructure like the Courthouse and Memorial Hospital are clearly detailed within the urbanized red-tinted zones of the primary settlements.
