2011 Map of Jersey

About this map

Walnut Grove and the town of Jersey anchor this landscape during a period of transition, where small rural communities began expanding into more structured residential developments. The area is defined by its complex network of water resources and small aviation hubs, including Poole Farm Airport and the Covington Municipal Airport. Significant water bodies such as Cornish Creek Reservoir, Williams Lake, and the winding Alcovy River shape the local geography, with several dams like Hodges Dam and Whitley Dam managing the flow. Local history is deeply embedded in the land through numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Macedonia Cemetery, Forrester Cemetery, and Dally Cemetery. Notable elevations like Alcovy Mountain and Cornish Mountain provide distinct vertical relief against the creek basins, while small enclaves like Meadow View and Hazelbrand Acres reflect the modern growth surrounding these traditional Georgia settlements.
