2017 Map of Gordon

About this map

Gordon and Ivey anchor this central Georgia landscape where the industrial and natural worlds meet at the Fall Line Fwy. The presence of Freeport Kaolin Lake points to the region's significant kaolin mining heritage, which has shaped the local economy and topography. The map detail reveals a high density of rural burial grounds, including Hardy Cem, Rose Hill Cem, and the Union Hill Methodist Churchyard, providing valuable data points for genealogists tracking family lineages in Wilkinson and Baldwin counties. Waterways like Commissioner Creek and its many tributaries, such as Turkey Creek and Gaylor Creek, snake through the terrain, while landmarks like the Walter A Scott Memorial Bridge and McCook Bridge indicate key crossing points in the transportation network.
