I can't give you the total answer, but here's some clues. These military districts were created in numerical order throughout the state of GA... So if a district is surrounded by GMDs of higher numbers you can surmise that they came out of the lower number. In this case, on my map, 729 it at the eastern central side of Carroll and surrounded by 1542, 1541, 1297, 1483 --- so my guess is that is was almost all that central side next to Douglas County...

Several years ago I went to the Library and was ushered to an unorganized map cabinet. Needless to say, I was not successful. Is there a book series that identifies areas or a particular county office to ask or a magical site in cyberspace? I'm interested in where this area was/is, the lay and quality of the land and what did people do for a living? Thanks, Rosebird Virginia Crilley
