About this map

Rhine anchors the southern portion of this Dodge County landscape, where the local road network converges near the banks of Cypress Cr. The terrain is defined by a dense system of waterways including the Cypress River, Crooked Cr, and Little Br, which feed into prominent local basins like Lake Cypress, Peterson Pond, and Jamieson Pond. These features illustrate a classic Georgia coastal plain drainage pattern, with wide wetlands surrounding the primary creeks.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the scattered rural landmarks and family-named routes. Small settlements like Union and Five Points are documented alongside several family burial grounds, including Ruth Prince Cem, Burney Cooper Cem, and the Old Fair Haven Cem located north of the town center. The map also captures an intricate web of named thoroughfares such as Roddy Burnham Rd and Milan Eastman Rd, reflecting the long-standing agricultural and family connections of the region.
