Frontier link with the world : the Upson County railroad

A Frontier Link with the World is the history of one small company which
operated a track sixteen miles long and served essentially one community.
This company shared significant characteristics with its much larger
neighbors, and therefore serves as a microcosm depicting the
interrelationships between the corporate activities of a Georgia railroad and
the economic and social history of the community it served. To place the
railroad in the context of the local community, the author includes includes
detailed information (illustrated by graphs and liberal quotes from
contemporary sources) showing the evolution of the local Thomaston and Upson
economies, population growth, and social activities. Much information about
local persons connected with the railroad is included, and features which
might make the book interesting to genealogists include a comprehensive name
and subject index, a list of all known original stockholders, and a list of
all known employees through 1914. The book begins by describing Upson County
in the 1820's, then traces efforts of its citizens to build a railroad to
Thomaston. Paterson describes the eventual completion of the line in 1857,
its operations before and during the Civil war, its abandonment in 1866, its
rebuilding under new management in 1870, and its operation as a branch of the
Central Railroad until 1914. A concluding chapter briefly summarizes changes
in the branch's operations from 1914 to now. Until a new and comprehensive
history of nineteenth-century Upson County is written, this book will serve
as the primary resource for much of Upson history outside of just the
railroad.
