2024 Map of Chattahoochee

About this map

The Apalachicola River forms a major geographic boundary where the Chattahoochee River meets Lake Seminole at the tri-point of Florida and Georgia. This modern topographical study of Gadsden County captures the town of Chattahoochee and the nearby community of River Junction, illustrating how the local geography is defined by the convergence of these major waterways. The map is particularly notable for its dense documentation of local burial sites and family-named landmarks, such as the Florida State Hospital Cemetery and the Elizabeth A M E Church Cemetery. Local history is preserved through the naming of small settlements like Rosedale and Jinks, along with a complex network of creeks including Mosquito Creek and Flat Creek that drain into the larger river systems. The inclusion of the First Methodist Church and numerous rural cemeteries like McAlpin Cemetery and Smyrna Cemetery makes this a valuable record for genealogical research in the Panhandle region.
