2020 Map of Doerun

About this map

Doerun serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Colquitt County, where a grid of rural roads connects the surrounding settlements of Minnesota, Ticknor, and Pritchetts. The terrain is defined by the gentle drainage of the Ochlockonee River on the eastern edge and several smaller tributaries like Bridge Cr and Brushy Br that move through the lowlands. This area is particularly rich for family history research, as it preserves the locations of numerous small burial grounds including Liberty Hill Cem, Union Cem, and the Cool Springs Baptist Church Cem. The map illustrates a classic South Georgia pattern of scattered farmsteads and rural crossroads, with named landmarks like Sanders Lake and Sells Lake serving as prominent water features among the tilled fields and timber stands that characterize the region's 21st-century topography.
