About this map

The Mitchell and Grady County line divides this South Georgia landscape, where karst topography creates a unique network of depressions and water features. Prominent geological formations like Devils Den, Glory Hole, and Waterfall Sink punctuate the terrain, indicating the subsurface drainage common in this region. The northern section is dominated by the Bay Pole Sink and the winding course of the Big Slough, while the southern reaches feature Whigham Lake. Small family and community burial grounds, including Union Cem, Godwin Cem, and Wilder Cem, are scattered along rural routes such as Lodgetown Rd and Harrell Rd, providing essential points of reference for genealogists. This contemporary survey documents the intersection of agricultural land use and complex hydrology, from the tributaries of Kelly Cr to the wetlands bordering Sopp Cr.
