2020 Map of Lyerly

About this map

Menlo and Lyerly anchor this Chattooga County landscape, where the ridge-and-valley geography of northwest Georgia is clearly defined by Shinbone Ridge and the prominent Dirtseller Mtn. The Chattooga River valley serves as a primary corridor for settlement, with the community of Berryton situated along the eastern slopes. A network of country roads connects family burial grounds and landmarks, including the Pleasant Green Church Memorial Monument and Gamble Cem near Gamble Spring. The state line with Alabama cuts through the southwestern corner, marking the edge of the Broomtown Valley. Water sources such as Perennial Springs and Moseley Springs suggest a reliance on natural hydrology in this agricultural and woodland terrain, while the proximity of various cemeteries like Ami Cem and Lawrence Cem provides specific points of interest for genealogical research.
