1955 Map of Sandy Springs
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The Chattahoochee River carves a deep diagonal through this mid-1950s landscape, serving as the natural boundary between Cobb and Fulton Counties. Before the intense suburbanization of later decades, the area around Sandy Springs and Sewell remains defined by its network of historic churches and family landmarks, including Antioch Ch and Mt Bethel Cem. The map documents a period of transition as the Atlanta city boundary reaches the southern edge of the sheet, while the northern reaches maintain a more rural character focused around Marietta Campground and Camp Bert Adams.
