2011 Map of Beaverdale

About this map

The Conasauga River meanders through this agricultural and riverine landscape on the Georgia-Tennessee border, anchoring a series of small settlements and family landmarks. In the northern reaches, Gregorys Mill and Gregory sit near the river’s bend, while Upper Kings Bridge provides a vital crossing point just south of Beaverdale. The terrain is defined by low ridges and valleys, including Gap Spring Ridge and Sumac Ridge, which hem in the fertile plains where Sugar Creek and Sumac Creek flow. Genealogy researchers can find several established burial grounds, such as Mount Pleasant Cemetery and Shields Harris Cemetery, providing clear evidence of generational residence in communities like Ruralvale and Temple Grove. The map also identifies local landmarks like Hampton Island and Blue Bird Field, reflecting a rural character where land use is intimately tied to the waterways and surrounding valleys such as Fairy Valley.
