2018 Map of Gordon

About this map

The Chattahoochee River forms a prominent natural boundary between Houston County, Alabama, and Early County, Georgia, in this 2018 survey. The landscape is defined by the winding river and a network of named tributaries, including Sowhatchee Creek and Cedar Creek. Several small settlements are clustered along the river corridor, such as Gordon and Alaga on the Alabama side, and Cedar Springs in Georgia. Local history is anchored by sites like Gordon Cem and Cedar Springs Cem, which provide tangible links for genealogists and researchers. The map also details numerous family-named landmarks and water features, from Howells Fishpond to Smith Bend, illustrating how the waterway influenced the rural development and surveying of this border region.
