About this map

Brier Creek defines the eastern landscape of this corner of Burke County, winding through a network of smaller tributaries and family-named landmarks. The settlement of Hilltonia sits to the south, while the community of Millhaven serves as a central hub for the surrounding agricultural and timber lands. The area is marked by numerous water-management features, including Millhaven Pond Dam and the Railroad Pond Dam, illustrating the local reliance on managed water bodies for industry or recreation.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several family and community burial grounds, such as Saint Paul Cemetery, Lovetts Cemetery, and Jenkins Cemetery. Significant river access points like Red Bluff Landing and Rice Landing indicate the historical importance of the creek for transport and regional connectivity. Smaller settlements like Murray Hill and distinctive landmarks such as Hills Millpond further detail the rural character of this Georgia landscape.
