2020 Map of Jacksons Crossroads

About this map

The Broad River forms a significant natural boundary across the northern portion of this landscape, where the borders of Elbert, Oglethorpe, and Wilkes Counties meet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Long Creek, Chickasaw Cr, and Goosepond Cr that carve through the rural countryside. Historic crossings like Gunnells Bridge and Bells Bridge remain central to the local geography, connecting isolated settlements such as Bell and Norman. In the southern reaches, the community of Jacksons Crossroads and the town of Tignall serve as anchor points for a region largely shaped by its agricultural and pastoral character. For those tracing family history, several prominent burial grounds are documented, including Rocky Branch Cem, Saint Johns Cem, and Mallorysville Cem, alongside Clarks Station Cem near the junction of Clark Station Church Rd.
