About this map

Hog Mountain serves as a prominent landmark in this Gwinnett County landscape, positioned between the upper reaches of the Alcovy River and the Little Mulberry River. The 1992 survey documents a region undergoing suburban transition, where historical rural identifiers like Harmony Sch and the Gravel Springs Ch Cem meet modern developments including the Phillips Correction Facility and several new subdivisions. A high density of churches and family cemeteries, such as Waters Cem and McElroy Cem, underscores the area's deep-rooted community history.

Transportation corridors like Old Peachtree Road and Thompsons Mill Road weave through the terrain, connecting established settlements like Buford and Dacula. The map captures the complex water network of the Georgia Piedmont, featuring Ivy Creek, Sardis Creek, and the headwaters of the Yellow River. Notable landmarks such as Wheeler Cent and various Radio Towers signify the modern infrastructure supporting the growth of the late twentieth century.
