2017 Map of Alma

About this map

Alma serves as the primary municipal hub in this south Georgia landscape, characterized by a grid of residential streets and central community landmarks like Rose Hill Cem. East of the city, the smaller settlement of Rockingham sits along the highway, supported by the nearby Rockingham Cem. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of blackwater streams and wetlands, including Hurricane Cr and Tenmile Cr, which feed into numerous named water bodies such as Lake Lure and the expansive Aldridge and Eason Lake. Numerous family-named cemeteries, such as Johnsons Cem and Holton Cem, are scattered across the rural acreage, providing vital touchpoints for genealogical research. The road network reflects a mix of modern transit and older rural routes like Bennett Still Hwy, bordering the low-lying basins of Bear Br and Rigdon Br.
