About this map

Flint River frontage defines the eastern boundary of this Georgia landscape, marking the transition between Lee and Worth counties. This 1970s survey captures a largely agricultural region characterized by scattered settlements and rural landmarks. Small communities like Tarpley and Philema are positioned along the local road network, while the western edge features the small locale of Mossy Dell near a natural Spring.

Religious life in the area is represented by several rural churches, including Phillips Grove Ch, St Mathews Ch, and New Pine Grove Ch. The terrain is shaped by numerous watercourses such as White Oak Branch, Hawkins Branch, and Starr Branch, which feed into the primary river system. An interesting detail for historians is the section of abandoned roadway or rail bed near the Flint River, suggesting shifts in the transportation corridor during this era of Georgia's development.
