About this map

The Dodge County Courthouse stands as the central landmark of Eastman, Georgia, anchoring a community where civil administration and regional infrastructure meet. This contemporary survey shows a landscape defined by its transit corridors and public institutions, including the campus of Middle Georgia State University - Eastman and the Heart of Georgia Regional Airport. Outside the primary settlement, the terrain is shaped by the winding course of Sugar Cr and Crooked Br, with smaller settlements like Dodge High to the northwest and Godwinsville to the southeast.

Local history and genealogy researchers will find significant detail in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, such as Orphans Cem, Evans Cem, and Lockett Cem. The mapping of these sites alongside landmarks like Tripps Lake and Harrell Pond provides a clear view of the rural-to-urban transition in Dodge County. Waterways like the Cypress River and Gum Swamp Creek further delineate the local geography, showing the natural drainage patterns that have influenced land use and development in this part of Georgia for generations.
