1967 Map of Spooner

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Okefenokee Swamp and the dense blackwater drainage of the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge dominate this landscape on the Clinch and Ware county line. The map captures a transitional landscape of wet pine woods and marshy depressions, where human activity is defined by the extraction of timber. Evidence of former industry is found in the Dismantled Logging Tram paths that cut through the wetlands, and significant navigation points like The Wye and the Lookout Tower near Spooner. Small rural hubs such as Jamestown and the Antioch Ch provide social anchors in an area otherwise carved by an intricate network of named water bodies, including Surveyors Creek, RootY Branch, and Barnum Branch. The presence of landmarks like Gainey Island and Stevens Bay reflects the localized naming conventions used by those who worked the cypress and pine stands in the mid-20th century.
