2011 Map of Maysville

About this map

Maysville and Homer anchor this 2011 survey of the northeast Georgia landscape, where the headwaters of the Hudson River and Grove Creek are managed by a series of flood control structures. The map is particularly rich in genealogical data, preserving the locations of numerous family and community burial grounds including Hickory Flat Cemetery, Mount Carmel Cemetery, and the Veal Cemetery near Maysville. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Hickory Level Creek and Candler Creek, with local infrastructure marked by historical crossings such as Savill Bridge, Ryles Bridge, and Mangum Bridge. This modern topographic study illustrates a rural corridor where legacy land boundaries and small cemeteries remain central to the geography even as water management projects like Reservoir 51 and Reservoir 30 have reshaped the local drainage patterns.
