2017 Map of Devereux

About this map

The community of Devereux sits at the northern end of this survey, serving as a central point for a landscape defined by small settlements and numerous family burying grounds. The area is intersected by a complex drainage network including Fort Cr, Mill Cr, and Sheep Cr, which flow through the undulating terrain of Hancock County. To the south, Beulah appears as a secondary hub of local activity, marked by its namesake Beulah Cem and the nearby Second Beulah Baptist Church Cem. The distribution of family-named landmarks such as the Thornton Family Cem and Devereux Family Cem suggests a long-standing pattern of multi-generational land ownership. The presence of the Hancock Co Baldwin Co boundary line at the southwest corner illustrates the rural divide between these two Georgia districts during this era of modern mapping.
