2014 Map of Eden

About this map

The Ogeechee River snakes through the heart of this coastal plain landscape, defining the winding boundary between Bulloch, Bryan, and Effingham counties. In this 2014 edition, the settlement pattern shows a concentration of local history around the highway intersections and river crossings, particularly at Blitchton, where Blitch Cem stands near the junction of GA-26 and US-280. Further east, the community of Eden and the town of Meldrim mark the transition toward the suburban reaches of the region, while smaller locales like Doswell remain tucked away near Ogeechee Run. Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial sites, including Eldora Cem, Sand Hill Cem, and Bird Cem. The presence of the Cypress Lakes Airport and the complex network of creeks like Black Creek and Mill Creek illustrate the diverse land use of this Georgia corridor.
