2020 Map of Lanier

About this map

Pembroke and the historic Bryan County Courthouse anchor the southwestern corner of this coastal plain landscape. The terrain is defined by complex wetland systems and baygalls, including the expansive Patrick Bay, Boggy Bay, and Mill Creek Bay. These water features surround slightly elevated land masses uniquely identified as islands despite being far inland, such as Jennett Island, Moonshine Island, and Cooks Island. The road network connects small rural communities like Lanier to the county seat, while local history is preserved at Stevens Grove Cem and North Side Cem. To the northeast, the Ivanhoe Hunting Club sits near the winding course of Upper Black Cr, illustrating the traditional land use patterns of the Georgia pine woods and river bottomlands. The map reveals the intricate drainage patterns of Lower Black Cr and Mill Cr as they move through the varied elevations of Bulloch and Bryan counties.
