About this map

The Chattahoochee River defines the border between Alabama and Georgia in this 2011 survey, centered on the riverfront town of Columbia. The landscape transition from the Alabama side to the Georgia side is marked by the industrial activity at the Columbia State Dock and the crossing of the Columbia Bridge. To the north, the river winds through Freeman Bend near Freeman Landing, a site reflecting the long history of river navigation in the region.

Evidence of early infrastructure remains visible, most notably the Coheelee Creek Covered Bridge spanning Coheelee Creek on the Georgia side. The map details a network of rural routes such as Lizzard Lope Rd and Old Columbia Rd, which connect small settlements like Hilton and Sawhatchee. Local genealogy is anchored by sites like Grier Cemetery and Zion Cemetery, while the presence of the Columbia Post Office denotes the town's role as a local civic hub.
