2024 Map of Lawrenceville

About this map

Lawrenceville and the surrounding rural landscapes of Henry and Barbour Counties are defined by a network of creeks and small family settlements. The terrain is notably marked by the Baker Hill Cuesta in the northeast, while the East Fork Choctawhatchee River and its tributaries, including Cowpens Creek and Cat Branch, drain the southwestern reaches. The area's history is anchored by several community centers like Richards Crossroads, Edgefield, and Edwin, each connected by a winding system of county roads such as Pond Bethel Church Rd and Union Grove Rd. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds, including the Lawrenceville Cem, Mount Zion Cem, and the appropriately named County Line Cem situated right on the border between the two counties. Numerous ponds and named water bodies like Lake Choctawhatchee and White Pond dot the landscape, reflecting the local importance of water resources in this agricultural region.
