About this map

The town of Hull and the rural communities of Planter, Neese, and Diamond Hill occupy a landscape where the headwaters of the Oconee River system meet. This area, spanning the borders of Madison, Jackson, and Clarke Counties, is characterized by a dense network of family-named landmarks and cemeteries such as Porterfield Cem and Mount Zion Cem. The map reveals a land structured by its waterways, from the Seagraves Mill Pond near Sanford to the multiple reservoirs that dot the creek valleys.

Industry and local history intersect at Barretts Mill on the southern edge of the sheet, while unique terrain features like Booger Hill and Beecher Hill rise above the winding paths of Little Sandy Cr and Nowhere Br. The layout of local routes, including Moons Grove Church Rd and Neese Commerce Rd, reflects the historical connectivity between these small agricultural and milling centers before the expansion of the modern Athens suburbs.
