2020 Map of Groveland

About this map

The town of Pembroke and the neighboring community of Groveland anchor this landscape along the border of Bulloch and Bryan counties. This modern survey illustrates the persistent rural settlement patterns of the Georgia coastal plain, where small hamlets like Southward, Reka, and Mitchell Forks are connected by a dense network of family-named roads such as Horace Mitchell Rd and Ju Williams Ln. The terrain is defined by a complex system of bay swamps and slow-moving branches, including Bryan Bay, Bulloch Bay, and Boggy Bay. Local history is preserved in several rural burial grounds, notably Beautiful Zion Cem and Red Hill Cem, which sit alongside established routes like Red Hill Church Rd. The map provides a clear view of the drainage patterns through Luke Swamp and Mill Cr, highlighting the intersection of human settlement with the region's unique wetland geography.
