2014 Map of Denton

About this map

Denton serves as the central hub for this portion of Southeast Georgia, where the crossing of highway routes organizes the landscape into a grid of rural residences and agricultural tracts. The town is flanked by the smaller settlements of Brooker to the north and Lehigh to the south, the latter situated near the border between Jeff Davis and Coffee counties. This terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries, including Whitehead Cr, Town Cr, and Little Hurricane Cr, which create the low-lying drainage patterns characteristic of the coastal plain. Family and community history is anchored by landmarks such as Burkett Cem and Wilcox Cem, as well as numerous family-named roads like Fannie Burkett Rd and Gainer Farm Rd that reflect long-standing local ties to the land.
