2017 Map of Baden

About this map

The borderland between Brooks County, Georgia, and Madison and Jefferson Counties in Florida defines this rural landscape. The settlement of Baden sits central to a network of local routes including Hickory Head Rd and Baden Rd, while the hamlet of Empress occupies the southern reaches just north of the state line. The topography is shaped by the meandering course of Piscola Creek and its tributary Pine Br, alongside distinctive local depressions like Stanley Bay and Purdy Lake. Genealogists will find several family and community burial grounds, including Worn Cem and Union Cem, scattered among the agricultural plots. Further south across the border, the community of Lovett appears near the intersection of NW Littlecat Rd and NW 187 St, illustrating the continuous settlement patterns that ignore political boundaries in this corner of the Deep South.
