2018 Map of Bellwood

About this map

Bellwood stands at the confluence of the Choctawhatchee River and Broxson Cr, serving as a central point in this corner of Geneva County. The landscape is defined by its numerous small watercourses and family-named ponds, including Jimmy Henderson Pond and Hughes Lake. For those researching local lineages, the map identifies several rural burying grounds such as Consolation Cem, Sardis Cem, and Cool Springs Cem, which are often the primary markers of older community centers. The settlement of Scranton appears northwest of Bellwood, situated near Lake Jeanette and Lake Fox. The terrain is a network of named branches and creeks like Mauldin Cr, Berry Br, and Wilkerson Cr that feed into the larger river system. This topography reflects a late-2010s view of the Wiregrass region, where established road networks such as Kings Bay Rd and Railroad St intersect the legacy of the old rail lines that once drove the local economy.
