1972 Map of Sparta NW

About this map

Springfield and Powelton anchor this rural landscape in the early 1970s, situated where the boundaries of Greene, Taliaferro, and Hancock counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways feeding into the Ogeechee River in the northeast corner, including Lacy Creek, Johnson Creek, and Powell Creek. Cultural history is preserved through scattered rural landmarks like Battery Ch and Antioch Ch, alongside smaller family and community burial grounds such as Dixon Cem and Antioch Cem. The mapping shows a predominantly agricultural and wooded character, with a notable Pipeline cutting through the center of the sheet and several unnamed graves and cemeteries marking the locations of earlier homesteads. The convergence of Battle Branch and Beaverdam Branch underscores the heavy influence of the watershed on the historical settlement patterns of this Middle Georgia region.
