2011 Map of Hawkinsville

About this map

The Ocmulgee River serves as the central geographic feature of this Pulaski County landscape, with Hawkinsville situated on its western bank and the community of Hartford positioned directly across the water to the east. The Roger H Lawson Memorial Bridge facilitates the primary crossing between these two settlements, connecting the urban grid of the county seat with the more rural eastern reaches. Local genealogy and land use are well-documented through several burial grounds, including the historic Orange Hill Cemetery and Pine Bloom Cemetery near the town center, as well as the outlying Simpson Cemetery and Pulaski-Bleckley Memorial Gardens. The map also details early 21st-century infrastructure such as the Hawkinsville-Pulaski County Airport and the Pulaski Lookout Tower located near the southern settlement of Tippetts. High river bluffs like Taylors Bluff and Prichards Bluff overlook the winding river valley north of the city.
