About this map

The city of Toccoa serves as the industrial and cultural anchor of this mid-1960s survey, situated along the Southern railroad line. The landscape is characterized by a mix of educational and religious institutions, including the Toccoa Falls Institute near the famous Toccoa Falls and the Whitman Street High Sch in the urban center. North of the city, the Chattahoochee National Forest boundary encloses the Toccoa Reservoir and several small lakes, while the Hartwell Reservoir begins its reach to the northeast.

South and east of the city, the terrain transitions into a patchwork of rural settlements and family landmarks. Researchers can trace the layout of community nodes such as Fowlertown, Eastanollee, and Boydville. The presence of the Toccoa Airport and a Drag Strip near Carnes Creek highlights the era's infrastructure growth, while numerous country churches like Alliance Ch and Philadelphia Cem & Ch provide essential touchpoints for local genealogical research.
