2018 Map of Columbia North

About this map

Columbia sits at the southern edge of this Marion County terrain, where the commercial center gives way to a landscape defined by the winding Pearl River and its numerous tributaries. The map details the transition from the city’s residential streets and the Columbia-Marion County Airport into the agricultural and wooded uplands to the north. Several small communities and family-named landmarks are scattered throughout the region, including Expose and Fortenberry. Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial sites, ranging from the large Columbia City Cem and North Columbia City Cem to more rural locations such as Emmanuel Cem, Cedar Grove Cem, and Harmony Cem. A dense network of creeks, including Holiday Creek, Buckhorn Creek, and Balls Mill Creek, drains the rolling landscape toward the river valley, illustrating the historical importance of local water sources to the area's development.
