2017 Map of Farrar

About this map

Farrar and Maxwell anchor this section of Georgia, where the boundaries of Newton, Jasper, and Morgan counties converge. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Murder Creek and its tributaries, including Pittman Cr and Sheppard Cr. This modern survey reveals a highly developed system of water management, evidenced by the series of reservoirs known as Boyle Lake Number One through Boyle Lake Number Five, alongside Boyle Murder Lake and Murder Cr Lake. For those researching family history, several burial grounds are preserved across the terrain, including Shiloh Cem near the eastern border and Hopewell Cem to the south. The road network, including Murder Creek Church Rd and Shady Grove Church Rd, points to the community hubs that have historically organized this rural landscape.
