1970 Map of Scotland

About this map

Scotland sits at the heart of this South Georgia landscape, positioned where the Southern railroad intersects the Little Ocmulgee River. The area's mid-century layout is defined by the rural transport network, including the Seaboard Coast Line running through the northern reaches near Erick and Avants. The map reveals a community deeply rooted in its local geography, with numerous family-named landmarks and gathering places such as Stuart Chapel, Bay Springs Ch, and Spring Park. To the southeast, the small settlement of Towns lies near the Little Ocmulgee, highlighting the river's role as a natural boundary between Wheeler and Telfair counties. Cultural markers of the era are visible in the landscape, from the Drive-in Theater west of town to the Radio Tower (WDAX), offering a clear view of the region's social and industrial infrastructure during the early 1970s.
