2024 Map of Alston

About this map

Alston and Uvalda anchor this portion of the Georgia coastal plain, where the landscape is defined by the winding paths of Alligator Creek and Williams Creek. The boundary between Montgomery Co and Toombs Co runs vertically through the center of the sheet, dividing agricultural tracts and timberlands. Genealogists will find a significant number of family and community burial grounds, including Sharpe Cem, Galbreath Cem, and the Old Cedar Crossing Cem. To the south, the terrain descends toward the water at Upper Cato Lake and Lower Cato Lake, while Lefty's Landing provides a specific point of access to the local hydrology. The network of county roads, such as Cedar Crossing Vidalia Rd, connects smaller communities like Cedar Crossing and Rock Springs, reflecting the rural settlement patterns that persist into the 2020s.
