2020 Map of Maxeys

About this map

The Oconee National Forest occupies the southwestern corner of this Oglethorpe County landscape, where the headwaters of Falling Cr and Sandy Cr begin their descent through the rolling terrain. The central corridor is defined by the historic community of Stephens and the town of Maxeys further south, both situated along a north-south transit spine reflected today by Railroad St and Union Point Rd. This area reflects the agrarian and forestry roots of the Georgia Piedmont, evidenced by the network of farm-to-market roads and the winding path of the North Fork Little River. Local genealogy is anchored by sites such as McWhorter Cem and Moody Cem, which sit near the eastern boundary where Raiden Cr flows, marking family legacies in this rural stretch between Athens and the Oconee river basin.
