About this map

Bluffton anchors the southwestern corner of this survey, where the local grid of Green St and Kolomoki Rd meets the long, north-south corridor of State Rte 1. This primary thoroughfare connects the town to Suttons Corner and passes near Faines Lake, cutting through a landscape defined by several converging county boundaries including those of Clay, Randolph, Early, and Calhoun. The geography is etched by numerous drainage systems such as Spring Creek and Williams Creek, which create a complex network of wetlands and intermittent streams throughout the agricultural region.

Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial sites, including the Vilulah Cem in the northwest and Mars Hill Cem to the east. The presence of Mclendon Airport and small crossroads settlements like Moye and Jeff illustrate the modern transportation and social patterns of this part of Georgia. The map serves as a detailed record of land use, showing how the road network, including Vilulah Church Rd and Co Rd 130, follows the natural contours and watercourses of the terrain.
