About this map

West Point Lake dominates the upper half of this modern topographical study, its complex shoreline and inlets reaching into both Chambers County, Alabama, and Troup County, Georgia. This massive reservoir on the Chattahoochee River altered the local geography, creating features like Hairston Island and The Island while submerging the original riverbank terrain. To the south, the industrial and residential grid of Lanett and West Point straddles the state line, showing the continued significance of this river crossing.

Genealogists and local historians will find several well-documented burial sites throughout the landscape, including Forty Tyler Cem near the river and the Traylor Cem further east. The map also records smaller settlements such as Long Cane and Gabbettville, alongside numerous private lakes like Lanier Lake, Hill Lake, and Jones Lake, which characterize the upland areas away from the main river corridor.
