1968 Map of Ward

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Ochlockonee River defines the western edge of this landscape, winding through a dense network of swampy lowlands and creek drainages within the Apalachicola National Forest. The small settlement of Ward and the riverside Stoutamire Landing serve as the primary human touchpoints in an area characterized by significant topographic variety, from the riverine Big Eddy to the elevation of High Hill. A complex hydrologic system is mapped in detail, featuring Round Pond, Long Pond, and numerous drainages like Sweetwater Creek and Black Creek. Genealogists and local historians will find the locations of rural burial sites, such as the Blue Creek Ch Cem and Good Hope Cem, particularly valuable. The map also records the legacy of the Forbes Purchase through dotted land lines, marking private subdivisions within the larger public forest boundary.
