2017 Map of Auburn

About this map

Auburn and Carl anchor the southern portion of this modern survey, marking a corridor of growth where the borders of Gwinnett and Barrow counties meet. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of the Mulberry River and Little Mulberry River, which flow across a terrain punctuated by Doe Ridge and Pool Mtn. Notable for local historians are several long-established community centers, including the Harmony Grove United Methodist Church and its accompanying Harmony Grove United Methodist Church Cem. Further north, the proximity of Braselton and Hoschton highlights the clustering of historic municipalities along the Piedmont's evolving transportation routes. Water resources like Cruce Lake, Oglesby Lake, and the headwaters of the Apalachee River illustrate the hydrology that influenced early settlement patterns near Thompsons Mill.
