2020 Map of Metasville

About this map

Metasville and Goshen anchor this Georgia landscape where the boundary between Wilkes and Lincoln Counties follows the winding path of Soap Creek and its many tributaries. The northern reaches are defined by the presence of the J. Strom Thurmond Reservoir, where Morris Creek and Beach Branch feed into the expansive waterway. The region is characterized by a network of rural roads often named for local families and landmarks, such as Hattie Sutton Road and Goshen Church Road. Genealogy researchers will find several significant burial sites, including Anthonys Chapel Cemetery near Lovelace and Midway Cemetery to the north. Distinctive terrain features like Curry Hill and waterways such as Gold Mine Branch suggest a landscape shaped by both natural drainage and historical land use patterns.
