2017 Map of Brooklyn

About this map

Brooklyn and Renfroe anchor this rural landscape in Southwest Georgia, where the borders of Chattahoochee, Stewart, Marion, and Webster counties converge. The terrain is deeply defined by a drainage network feeding into Slaughter Cr and Little Slaughter Cr, with several family and community landmarks positioned along the ridgelines. Genealogists will find notable sites such as the Saint Phillip's Cem near the western edge and the Pickett-Shipley Cem to the east. The presence of Red Hill Church Rd and Mathis Store Rd suggests the historical locations of early community centers. Further south, the landscape opens toward Van Cleve Lake and Christmas Branch Lake, while the waters of Hannahatchee Cr and Bussey Br cut through the lower elevations, illustrating the essential relationship between the local geography and the rural road network that connects these small settlements.
