2017 Map of Cadwell

About this map

Cadwell and Plainfield serve as the primary hubs of this rural south-central Georgia landscape, where the boundary between Laurens Co and Dodge Co angles across the terrain. The area is defined by a dense network of local routes, such as Old Eastman Rd and Whittle Rd, which connect numerous family-named landmarks and historical burial grounds. Several small water bodies, including Whittle Lake, Bryan Lake, and Jones Pond, dot the region alongside an intricate system of creeks like Alligator Cr and Batson Cr. For the genealogist or local historian, the map preserves the exact locations of several secluded cemeteries, such as Joseph Mullis Cem, Daniels Gift Cem, and New Providence Cem. The transition from the town center of Cadwell out to the agricultural fields and timber stands of the surrounding countryside is clearly documented, illustrating the persistent rural character of this portion of the coastal plain.
