About this map

Bartletts Ferry Dam anchors this landscape, holding back the waters of Bartletts Ferry Lake as it straddles the Georgia-Alabama border. The shoreline is punctuated by local landmarks like Cooks Island, Herrington Island, and the Sandy Point Landing, reflecting the area's development for recreation and power generation. In the interior, small settlements such as Antioch and Mountain Hill are connected by a network of winding roads, including Lick Skillet Rd and Happy Hollow Rd.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of the Old Smyrna Cemetery and Antioch Cemetery, which sit among numerous private reservoirs such as Lake Williams and Lake Walter. The terrain is defined by low ridges like German Mountain and Williams Mountain, with the hydrological system further detailed through various dams on tributaries like Mountain Oak Creek and Mulberry Creek.
