1972 Map of Sparta NW

About this map

Powelton stands as a focal point in this rural landscape where the boundaries of Greene, Taliaferro, and Hancock counties converge. The topography is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the upper reaches of the Ogeechee River and numerous tributaries like Lacy Creek and Beaverdam Creek. In the early 1970s, the area remained predominantly agricultural and wooded, with small community centers anchored by local institutions such as Antioch Ch and Battery Ch. Genealogists may find value in the scattered burial sites, including the Dixon Cem and multiple unidentified cemeteries near Springfield. The presence of a prominent pipeline corridor cutting through the eastern half of the quadrangle illustrates the modern infrastructure intersecting this long-settled Piedmont terrain.
