About this map

Kite serves as the central hub of this eastern Georgia landscape, situated near the intersection of the Little Ohoopee River and Little Battleground Cr. The terrain is defined by a dense network of streams and family-named landmarks that reflect a long history of local landownership. Numerous cemeteries, including Meeks Cem and Anderson Cem, are scattered across the quadrangle, often located near private roads like Fortner Rd or K B Brantley Rd.

Water management is prominent throughout the region, evidenced by various agricultural and industrial impoundments such as Rayonair Pond, Meeks Pond, and Josey Pond. These features, along with the meandering path of the Ohoopee River and its tributaries like Mulepen Cr, illustrate the drainage patterns of Johnson and Emanuel counties. The map also records the boundary line between Johnson Co and Emanuel Co, which cuts through the southeastern corner near Sardis Cem.
