2014 Map of Fairchild

About this map

Lake Seminole dominates the landscape at the meeting point of the Florida-Georgia border, where the Chattahoochee River widens along the Jackson Co and Seminole Co lines. This riverine environment is defined by a dense network of water bodies, including Boram Lake, Sand Lake, and dozens of smaller ponds like Battle Pond and Hettie Pond. The settlement of Fairchild and the residential area of Paradise Acres occupy the higher ground east of the river, while the small communities of Parramore and Haynes lie to the northwest. Genealogists will find a significant concentration of family burial grounds throughout the area, such as Fairchild Cem, Robinson Cem, and Whiddon Cem. The mapping reflects a rural infrastructure of local routes like River Rd and Butler Rd that navigate the marshy terrain and Thompson Pond Ditch.
