About this map

Lamar and Methvins sit at the center of this agricultural landscape in Sumter County, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of creek branches and namesake ponds. The western edge of Dooly Co is marked by the course of the Flint River, while the interior is irrigated by notable water bodies such as Pat Crumpton Lake, Floyd Frazier Lake, and the connected Hoke Smith Lake East.

Genealogists and local historians can locate early family-associated landmarks including Counsel Cem and Pleasant Grove Cem, alongside evidence of local industry at Browns Mill Pond Mill. The map documents a complex drainage system where Lime Creek and its various branches, such as Po Joe Branch and Hurricane Branch, cut through the farmland. This survey preserves the exact placement of rural roads like Lane Store Road and Buck Doster Road, reflecting the 21st-century road network of this Georgia river valley.
