About this map

The Ogeechee River and its many tributaries, including Rocky Comfort Creek and Savannah Branch, define this Jefferson County landscape. Small agricultural and rail-oriented settlements such as Bartow and Moxley anchor the southern and eastern portions of the map, while Pine Hill and Aldreds mark central junctions. The area is dotted with numerous family-named landmarks and local burial grounds, including Old Bethel Cemetery, Parker Cemetery, and Bentley Cemetery, which provide significant data points for genealogical research.

Industrial and civil infrastructure is evident through the many small impoundments like Cobb Lake Dam, Thomas Lake Dam, and Smith Lake Dam. In the northern section, the Louisville Municipal Airport and the Jefferson Lookout Tower represent modern developments and fire-watch history, respectively. The map preserves a network of rural routes, from Old US 1 to the winding Bostic Mill Rd, showing the connectivity of Georgia's coastal plain timber and farm country.
