About this map

The Ocmulgee River winds through the heart of this landscape, forming the boundary between Macon-Bibb County and Jones County. Near Toms Shoals, the river's path is flanked by residential growth and several established community anchors. To the west, the campus and surrounding neighborhoods of Wesleyan, including Wesleyan Woods and Wesleyan Estates, show the suburban expansion of north Macon.

Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial sites preserved amidst the modern road networks, including Damascus Cem, Sardis Cem, and the McKay Cem. The settlement of Arkwright sits at a strategic junction near the river, while numerous small water bodies such as Eagle Lake and Rivoli Lake dot the terrain. The map captures the meeting of three counties—Bibb, Jones, and Monroe—where historical land divisions intersect with contemporary development.
