2017 Map of Massey Hill

About this map

Gordon sits at the northern edge of this Wilkinson County landscape, where industrial activity is marked by the Freeport Kaolin Tailings Pond. The map reveals a dense network of family and community history through its numerous burial grounds, including the Massey Cem, Ramah Cem, and McArthur-Robinson Cem. The terrain is defined by a series of south-flowing drainages like Dry Fork, Clear Cr, and Big Sandy Cr, which flow toward the border of Wilkinson Co and Twiggs Co. Local landmarks like Myricks Millpond and the H A Fountain Bridge over the Big Sandy reflect the intersection of the natural water system with early rural infrastructure. Further south, settlements like Clayfields and Massey Hill are connected by a web of local routes such as Kaolin RD and Asbury Church RD, tracing the agricultural and industrial character of the region in the early 21st century.
