About this map

The Flint River defines the southeastern corner of this Georgia landscape, marking the natural boundary between Lee Co and Worth Co. In the surrounding countryside, the drainage network is characterized by numerous slow-moving branches such as Hawkins Branch, Starr Branch, and The Bay Branch, which feed into larger systems across the flat agricultural terrain. The small community of Philema sits near the river in the south, while Mossy Dell and the nearby Mossy Dell Lake occupy the western portion of the quadrangle.

Local history is grounded in family-named landmarks and rural infrastructure, including the Larramore Cem situated off Batts RD. The map reveals a transition from the structured road network of New York RD and Gus Martin RD to the more organic, swampy pockets like The Bay. This survey documents the contemporary land use and hydrography of this section of the coastal plain, showing the enduring importance of river-adjacent settlements and family heritage sites.
