1920 Map of Statesboro

About this map

Statesboro serves as the regional hub for eastern Georgia in this post-World War I era survey, situated at the junction of the Central of Georgia and Shearwood Railway. The surrounding landscape of Bulloch County is defined by a dense network of rural infrastructure, where nearly every crossroads is anchored by a neighborhood institution such as Langston Chapel, Smith Allen Deal School, or Byrd School. The topography is characterized by a series of significant water bodies and swamps, including Riggs Pond and Kennedy Pond, which feed into the Canoochee River in the southwestern corner. The mapping detail reveals a transition from the town center to a countryside punctuated by small settlements like Register and Adabelle, connected by early thoroughfares like the Savannah and Statesboro Road.
