2011 Map of Egypt

About this map

Egypt and Ardmore anchor this section of the coastal plain, where early 21st-century Georgia remains shaped by rural settlement patterns and a network of minor waterways. The landscape is defined by the drainage of Cowpen Branch and Turkey Branch, punctuated by private water management features like Grafarwill Trust Pond and Griffin Lake. The transport network reveals layers of regional history, with thoroughfares such as Old Dixie Hwy S, Savannah Town RD, and Old Elam Cemetery RD connecting small hubs like Shawnee and Tusculum. The presence of the Elam Cemetery and family-named infrastructure such as the Allison Dam provides specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing the development of Effingham County. These features suggest an economy and community still closely tied to the land and historical transit routes leading toward the Savannah area.
