About this map

The Altamaha River winds through the heart of this coastal plain landscape, defining the boundary between Toombs and Appling counties. This survey captures a region of family homesteads and river landings, anchored by the settlement of English Eddy and the crossing at the Joseph Simmons Alexander Senior Memorial Bridge. The rural character is punctuated by numerous family cemeteries, including Griner Cem, Mann Oquin Cem, and the Old Campground Cem, which offer significant value for genealogists tracing South Georgia roots. Terrain features like Falling Rocks and Piney Bluff rise above the river's path, while a network of named roads like Griner Cem Rd and Laura Dixon Rd connect the scattered farms and river outposts. Further south, the community of Davis sits near the headwaters of Roaring Cr, illustrating the area's deep ties to the river system and its various tributaries like Cobb Cr and Grace Br.
