1956 Map of Stone Mountain
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
Stone Mountain dominates this mid-1950s landscape, featuring the Stone Mountain Memorial Petroglyphs and a nearby Air Beacon. The region is a study in mid-century Georgia development, where established communities like Stone Mountain and Tucker are connected by the Seaboard Air Line Railroad and the Georgia Railroad. The rural-to-suburban transition is evident in the cluster of small lakes and community landmarks, including Pine Lake, Kenilworth Lake, and Durham Lake. Local heritage is anchored by numerous country churches and schools such as Rehoboth Ch, Ebenezer Ch, and Algood Sch. The map also traces the headwaters of several drainages, including South Fork Peachtree Creek and Snapfinger Creek, which weave through the burgeoning residential corridors of Clarkston and Redan.
