1972 Map of Wrightsboro

About this map

Wrightsboro occupies the central portion of this 1970s landscape, situated at a junction of rural roads and historical waterways. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages including Hart Creek, Little Creek, and Mattox Creek, all contributing to the southern reaches of Clark Hill Lake. The map reveals a community structured around its spiritual and social anchors, such as Brinkley Chapel, New Zion Hill Ch, and Pine Grove Ch. Evidence of local industry and infrastructure is present in the Quarry near Cedar Rock and the expansion of the Thomson Airport. A notable transition in land use is visible at the Belle Meade Country Club, while the presence of a Lookout Tower and an Industrial Waste Pond indicates the diverse economic activities of McDuffie County during this era.
