1950 Map of Wrens

About this map

Stapleton and Wrens anchor this mid-century landscape in Jefferson County, where the transition from agriculture to small-town commerce is documented through a dense network of country roads and community hubs. The area is defined by its integrated social centers, where education and faith often shared the same ground at sites like the Stone Springfield School Church and Cemetery and the Lofton School Church and Cemetery. These combined institutions, along with numerous windmills dotting the farms, reflect the self-sustaining nature of rural Georgia life just after the war.
