2014 Map of Meigs

About this map

Meigs serves as the central hub of this South Georgia landscape, where the borders of Mitchell, Thomas, and Grady counties converge. The town's grid is defined by its relationship with the Us-19 corridor and the surrounding agricultural tracts. To the south, the smaller communities of Quality and Hansell sit along the highway, reflecting the linear settlement patterns common to the region's transport routes. The area is heavily intersected by small watercourses and family-named landmarks, including Singletary Lake and the Little Ochlockonee River. Genealogists will find a significant distribution of local burial grounds, such as Sunset Cem, Midway Cem, and Providence Cem, which are scattered throughout the rural landscape. Bridges like Segler Mill Bridge and Brumby Bridge mark historical crossing points over the numerous creeks, such as Horse Cr and Big Cr, that drain the low-lying terrain.
