About this map

The Altamaha River winds through this landscape, defining the northern boundary of Appling County where the terrain drops at Falling Rocks and Piney Bluff. This 2011 survey captures the rural character of the region, anchored by the settlement of English Eddy and numerous family burying grounds. Genealogists will find a high concentration of established family landmarks, including the Old Campground Cemetery, Griner Cemetery, and Mann-Oquin Cemetery.

River navigation and crossings are well-documented by features such as Deens Landing, Sharpes Landing, and the Joseph Simmons Alexander Senior Memorial Bridge. Away from the river, the map shows a network of named rural roads, such as Lilly Moody Rd and Asbury Church Rd, which connect the scattered farms and homesteads. Local hydrology is further marked by Cobb Creek, Williams Creek, and the impounded waters at Lewis Lake in the southwest.
