About this map

Okapilco Creek and its many tributaries, including Hog Creek and Little Creek, define this rural section of Colquitt County. The landscape is marked by a network of local roads named for families and early community centers, such as Jerusalem Church Rd and Sardis Church Rd. Small settlements like Berlin and the hamlet of Ione are the primary focal points of the region.

Genealogical interest is found at Hopewell Cemetery near the northern border and Prosperity Cemetery further south, providing points of reference for local family history. While the area remains largely agricultural, newer developments like the Indian Creek Subdivision and the presence of the Sunbelt Strip landing field indicate more recent changes to the traditional land use patterns of this South Georgia territory.
