About this map

The Ogeechee River meanders across this landscape, forming the boundary between Screven Co and Bulloch Co in southeast Georgia. This region is defined by its extensive wetland systems and named bays, including Horse Pen Bay, Mobley Bay, and Morgan Bay. Small rural settlements like Dover, Cooperville, Donegal, and Cameron are scattered throughout the quadrangle, connected by a network of local roads such as Old River Rd and Five Chop Rd.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the map, ranging from the Oak Grove United Methodist Church Cem to the Macedonia Church Cem. The distribution of these cemeteries alongside features like Ricklighter Pond and Julie Pond reflects a long-established rural community pattern where church and family life was closely tied to the numerous creeks and branches, such as Wilson Br and Simmons Br, that feed into the river basin.
