1955 Map of Whigham
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
Whigham and Climax serve as the primary hubs on this survey of southwestern Georgia, situated along the Atlantic Coast Line railroad corridor. The landscape is defined by its agrarian and early industrial character, with numerous rural congregations and educational sites such as Salem Ch, Bell-Dixon Sch, and Mt Moriah Sch punctuating the countryside. The presence of Peoples Still and Princes Still points to the region's historical turpentine or distilling activities, while several Strip Mines east of Whigham indicate active mineral extraction during the mid-1950s.
