1970 Map of Tison

About this map

The Ohoopee River and Altamaha River converge at the southwest corner of this landscape, marking the border between Tattnall and Appling counties. In the late 1960s, this area was characterized by a network of rural congregations and family cemeteries, including Pine View Ch, Stony Hill Ch, and Oak Grove Ch. The small settlement of Tison sits near Watermelon Creek, while Five Points serves as a local crossroads to the south. An interesting historical remnant is the Old Railroad Grade in the northeast, indicating a former timber or freight corridor that once serviced the pine forests. Large wetlands such as Dinkins Bay and Padgett Bay dominate the central topography, illustrating the low-lying, water-rich environment typical of this Georgia river basin during the mid-to-late 20th century.
