2011 Map of Andersonville

About this map

Andersonville and its surrounding countryside are defined by a complex network of creeks and small impoundments, reflecting the agricultural and memorial landscape of Sumter County. The town is flanked by significant sites of remembrance, including the Andersonville National Cemetery and the local Andersonville Cemetery. This 2011 survey reveals the hydrological structure of the area, where Prison Branch flows toward the town while Sweetwater Creek and Triple Creek drain the broader terrain. Several family-named or local water bodies such as Wohlwender Lake, Charles Reeves Lake, and Tharpe Lake point to a landscape managed for farming and water resources. To the west, smaller settlements like La Crosse and Bumphead appear along the rural road network, connected by routes like La Crosse Rd and Bumphead Rd. This map provides a detailed view of the modern boundaries and landmarks of a region with deep roots in Georgia's history.
