About this map

The S Fork Broad River and its numerous tributaries, including Furnace Cr and Williams Cr, define the rural geography of Madison County in this 2014 survey. Small settlements and crossroads communities like Ila, Pocataligo, and Hix anchor a landscape dominated by family farms and local cemeteries. The northern portion of the quadrangle highlights the historical significance of Fort Lamar, situated near the crossing of Indian Hill Rd and Ga-106.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high density of burial sites across the terrain, from the Minish Cemetery near the community of Minish to the Culbertson Cem and Flagham Cem further north. The map also documents the local water infrastructure, noting several engineered reservoirs such as Reservoir 51 and Reservoir 27, which sit alongside natural features like Minishs Lake and Adams Lake.
