About this map

Doerun sits as the central hub of this South Georgia landscape, where agricultural fields are divided by a dense network of country roads and creek drainages. The topography is defined by the winding course of the Ochlockonee River and its various tributaries, including Bridge Cr and Mill Cr. This 2017 survey shows a pattern of small rural settlements such as Ticknor, Minnesota, and Pritchetts that grew around the region's historical intersections.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the numerous family and community burial sites scattered throughout the quadrangle, such as Duncan Smith Cem, Liberty Hill Cem, and the Cool Springs Baptist Church Cem. The map provides a precise record of the road network, from named routes like Union Church Rd and Liberty Hill Rd to the more localized lanes and circles that connect these long-standing communities across the Colquitt, Mitchell, and Worth County lines.
