2017 Map of Lothair

About this map

The Oconee River meanders through this portion of Treutlen County, defining the boundary with Laurens County and Wheeler County to the west. The river's path is marked by high points and traditional river landmarks such as Berry Hill Bluff, Bonnie Clabber Bluff, and Silver Bluff. In the center of the sheet, the Gov Troup Grave sits near the headwaters of Boggy Br, providing a significant touchstone for regional history. The settlements of Lothair and Barnhill serve as the primary hubs, connected by a network of rural routes like Cotton Picking Rd and Troups Tomb Rd. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of several family-named burial sites including Joyce Cem, Cooper Cem, and Fowlers Cem. The landscape is a complex of wetlands and oxbow formations, including Horseshoe Pond and the Dead River, which illustrate the shifting course of the Oconee over time.
