About this map

Cooks Still and Poplar Hill anchor this rural landscape in south-central Georgia, where the boundary between Dodge Co and Telfair Co follows the historic Telfair Line Rd. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the winding Horse Cr and its various branches, alongside the prominent Alligator Cr and Little Alligator Cr systems. These drainages are interspersed with localized water bodies such as Garrison Lake, Mathews Lake, and Davis Pond.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial sites across the quadrangle, including Studstill Cem, Mt Zion Cem, Rockwell Cem, and Hulett Cem. The infrastructure reflects a persistent agricultural and timber-focused economy, with namesake features like Cooks Still hinting at the area's historical turpentine or distilling industry, while roads like Tram Rd and China Hill Rd provide clues to early transport patterns between these small settlements.
