About this map

Scarboro and the rural junction of Four Points anchor this portion of the Georgia landscape, where the Ogeechee River defines the eastern boundary. The terrain is a network of slow-moving water and wetlands, characterized by Sculls Cr, Bay Gall Cr, and Newton Lake. For family historians, the area is rich with small burial grounds tucked away along rural routes, including Lane Cem, Clifton Cem, and Aycock Cem.

A network of local roads such as E Old Savannah Rd and Gays Hill Church Rd reveals a settlement pattern tied to the land and local parishes. Small features like Paynes Chapel Cem and Lanier Cem suggest deep-rooted communities that have persisted through generations. The proximity to the Jenkins Co and Bulloch Co border reflects the political geography of this river-adjacent region, where the economy remains tied to the drainage basins of features like Sand Hill Br and Southwell Br.
