2014 Map of Leslie

About this map

Leslie and DeSoto serve as the primary hubs in this agricultural corridor of Sumter County and Lee County. The map illustrates a landscape defined by its water management and transit routes, with Chokee Creek and its various tributaries, such as Dominy Br and Dry Br Cr, draining into larger bodies like Wilson Lake, Kaylor Lake, and Sadlers Millpond. Local infrastructure is anchored by the De Soto Lookout Tower and a network of arterial roads, including Us-280 and Ga-195, which connect the small town centers to the surrounding farmlands. Genealogists will find particular value in the several documented burial sites, including the Leslie City Cemetery, DeSoto Cemetery, and the more remote Mt Zion Cemetery, which mark the historical footprint of the community's early residents and rural congregations.
