About this map

Waynesboro serves as the western anchor of this landscape, where the urban street grid gives way to the agricultural and riparian corridors of eastern Georgia. The terrain is defined by the winding path of Brier Creek and its many tributaries, including McIntosh Cr and Fitz Br. In the southern reaches, small rural communities and named crossroads such as Alexander, Thomas Station, and Idlewood highlight the area's historical settlement patterns.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the various burial grounds and houses of worship scattered through the countryside, such as the Old Church Cem near the historic Old Church site and the Botsford Cem to the northeast. The infrastructure of the early 21st century is represented by the Burke County Airport and a network of named country roads that follow the ridges between watercourses like Sandy Br and Hatchers Millpond.
