2020 Map of Leefield

About this map

The Ogeechee River defines the eastern boundary of this South Georgia landscape, where the borders of Bulloch, Screven, and Effingham counties meet. The settlement of Leefield sits in the western portion of the map, connected by a network of local roads such as Stilson Leefield Rd and Brooklet Leefield Rd. The low-lying terrain is heavily characterized by wetlands and water bodies, including Davis Pond, Shephard Pond, and Stokes Lake, along with numerous drainages like Mill Cr and Spring Cr. Genealogists will find significant local landmarks in the form of rural cemeteries like Mount Zion Church Cem, New Hope Church Cem, Silas Morton Cem, and Knight Cem. The Fred W Hodges Bridge provides a crossing over the Ogeechee in the north, anchoring a region defined by its riverine geography and dispersed agricultural holdings.
