1907 Map of Talbotton

About this map

Warm Springs and its therapeutic waters anchor the north-central portion of this landscape, situated near the Warm Springs Camp Ground and the U S Fish Hatchery at Cold Spring. The 1905 survey reveals a region defined by the distinct ridges of Pine Mountain and Oak Mtn, which separate the agricultural plains of Harris and Talbot counties. Settlement patterns follow the established railroad corridors, with the Central of Georgia RR connecting communities like Bullochville and Waverly Hall, while the Talbotton RR provides a vital link to the county seat. Numerous milling sites, including Greens Mill and Hudson Mill, are situated along the dendritic drainage of Mulberry Creek and Upatoie Creek, illustrating the local water-powered economy of the era. The presence of social and educational centers like The Academy and Antioch Church reflects the established community structure in early twentieth-century Georgia.
