About this map

Willacoochee Cr and its tributaries, including Holman Br and Hubbard Br, carve through the landscape along the Georgia and Florida border in this study of Gadsden and Decatur counties. The settlement of Dogtown sits on the eastern edge of the survey, a community defined by its network of rural roads such as Fowlstown Rd and Faceville Attapulgus Rd. The area is notably dense with family and community burial grounds, preserving local history through sites like Saint Hebron Cem, Pottevint Cem, and Mount Hosey Cem.

A distinct mix of agricultural and transportation features characterizes the terrain, from the Viola Farm Airport in the north to the managed waters of Crescent Lake. Farther south, Betts Mill Cr winds past the Black Cem, illustrating the longstanding rural layout of these borderlands. The map provides a detailed view of the township and range system, marking transitions between t4n r3w and t3n r4w that have governed land ownership in this region for generations.
