2011 Map of Fitzgerald East

About this map

Fitzgerald and the rural community of Ashton define the human geography of this South Georgia landscape, where agricultural land is intersected by a network of named country roads and family cemeteries. Significant burial grounds including Kiokee Cemetery, Old Field Cemetery, and Mc Cook Cemetery are scattered across the terrain, offering essential coordinates for genealogists tracing regional lineages. The hydrology of the area is heavily managed, characterized by numerous impoundments such as Dorminy Lake, Morehead Lake, and Davis Lake, each secured by their respective dams. These water bodies feed into the natural drainage systems of Satilla Creek, Sturgeon Creek, and Willacoochee Creek. The grid of the city expands toward the City of Fitzgerald Northeast Pond, while the surrounding countryside remains dominated by farm-to-market routes like Peachtree Rd and Evergreen Rd, which connect the various homesteads and local landmarks.
