2017 Map of Macon NW

About this map

The Ocmulgee River serves as a primary geographic boundary in this region, separating Macon-Bibb County from its neighbors as it flows past Arkwright. The landscape is defined by the river’s winding course, featuring Toms Shoals and the confluence of several tributaries including Tobler Creek, Beaverdam Cr, and Town Cr. To the west, the suburban development of northwestern Macon is evident in residential clusters like Wesleyan Estates, Wesleyan Woods, and the Wesleyan campus. Numerous family and community burial grounds are scattered across the terrain, including Damascus Cem, Salem Cem, and Gorden Cem, offering significant points of interest for genealogical research. The map also records the expansion of the regional water network, visible in bodies such as Eagle Lake, Club Lake, and Lake Deer Run.
