About this map

Cedarpark sits at the heart of this Telfair County landscape, where a dense network of country roads connects family-named landmarks and historical burial grounds. The geography is defined by the winding paths of Sugar Cr and Turnpike Cr, which drain into a series of water bodies in the southeast, including Upper Stapleton Lake, Stapleton Lake, and Lower Stapleton Lake. These lakes, along with Powell Lake near the eastern boundary, highlight the significance of local hydrology in shaping the area's rural development.

Genealogists and local historians can find several namesake burial sites, such as Livingston Cem, Silver Cem, Wooten Cem, and Powell Cem. The map detail shows the transition from timbered wetlands along Opossum Cr and Little Horse Cr to the more established homesteads and routes like Mount Calvary Church Rd and Dodges Chapel Rd. This survey documents a quiet interior portion of Georgia, where the economy remains closely tied to the creek basins and the sprawling network of secondary roads that link these long-standing rural communities.
