1972 Map of Winfield

About this map

Clark Hill Lake defines the northwestern corner of this landscape, its controlled waters reaching into the inlets of Germany Creek and Rousseau Creek. This 1972 survey captures the rural character of the Columbia and McDuffie County border, a region punctuated by long-established crossroads and small agrarian hubs. The settlement of Winfield sits near the northeastern edge, served by Sharon Ch and Mt Carmel Ch, while the southern corridor is anchored by Jones Chapel and the White Oak Campground. The mapping reveals a network of country churches and family-named points like Ansley Mill and Stones Crossroads. These features, alongside the White Oak Grove Cem and Scuffletown, reflect a persistent pattern of rural Georgia life centered around localized community nodes and the creek systems of Greenbrier Creek and White Oak Branch.
