1968 Map of Wax

About this map

The Etowah River carves a deep loop through the northern landscape of this 1968 survey, creating a prominent horseshoe at Reynolds Bend. This region, split by the Floyd and Bartow county line, is defined by its network of rural congregations and small family-named ridges. Settlements like Wax are anchored by social landmarks such as Silver Creek Ch, Spring Hill Ch, and Turner Chapel. The terrain rises sharply from the riverbanks to heights like Yellow Jacket Mtn and Mullinax Mtn, the latter featuring a dedicated Lookout Tower.
