1961 Map of Warthen NW

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The rolling landscape of eastern Georgia is defined by the drainage networks of Buffalo Creek and Pinkston Creek in this early 1960s survey. The map reveals a rural community structure rooted in small churches and family burial grounds, such as Knowles Chapel, Shiver Grove Ch, and the Frasier Cem. The presence of several Fire Break labels and various Trail and Jeep Trail routes suggests a managed timber or agricultural environment. A small Borrow Pit and the Galilee Sch further anchor the settlement patterns along the county line between Hancock Co and Washington Co. These features collectively represent a quiet, mid-century rural South, where the placement of institutions like Sandy Run Ch and Union Ch follows the natural contours of the hills and stream valleys.
