2017 Map of Durand

About this map

White Sulphur Springs and the surrounding high ground of Harris and Meriwether counties define this transition between the Piedmont and the Pine Mountain range. The landscape is a network of small family-named cemeteries and rural crossroads that persist even as the regional footprint of larger settlements like Durand and Stovall remains modest. The topography is shaped by the drainage of Sulphur Cr and White-Sulphur Cr, which cut through the terrain toward smaller impoundments such as Vandegrift Lake and Williamson Lake. This 2017 survey reflects a deeply traditional Georgia settlement pattern where local roads like Dallas Mill Rd and Harry Hardy Rd connect scattered homesteads and community landmarks. Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites, including the Grier Cem, Glanton Cem, and Coplan-Perry Cem, which serve as physical anchors for the area's rural history.
