About this map

The Jordan settlement serves as a central point in this rural Wheeler County landscape, situated where S State Rte 126 meets local roads near Stewart Pond. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Alligator Creek and Crooked Cr, leading south toward the Little Ocmulgee River and north to the Oconee River. This 2017 survey reflects a deeply established rural community, evidenced by numerous family and community burial grounds including Browning Cem, Starlight Cem, and Livingston Cem.

The area around Spring Hill and the northern border with the Oconee River highlights the importance of water resources, with features like Smith Pond and Lotts Cr punctuating the wooded topography. A network of county roads, such as W Hope Church Rd and Pecan Rd, connects scattered residences and historic sites like the Spencer and Baker Cem, preserving the spatial arrangement of this Georgia agricultural region.
