About this map

The Ohoopee River and its tributary, the Little Ohoopee River, define the rural landscape of this region on the border of Treutlen and Emanuel counties. Small agricultural communities such as Norristown, Covena, and Gillis Springs are connected by a network of local routes like Stagecoach Rd and Gillis Springs Rd. The map is particularly dense with family-named burial sites, including the Wilkes Cem, Herrington Cem, and the isolated Phillips Grave.

South of the river, the intersection at Five Points serves as a local hub near Courson Pond and the interstate corridor. The drainage patterns of Pendleton Cr and Reedy Cr feed into larger bodies like Wildwood Lake and Trumell Pond, illustrating the importance of water management in this coastal plain environment. The presence of Paulk Dam and numerous small ponds reflects the localized hydraulic engineering common to Georgia's agricultural interior.
