About this map

Metter serves as the regional hub in this 2017 Georgia landscape, where a grid of modern streets meets an intricate network of coastal plain waterways. The town's layout is clearly defined, with Paradise Lake and Thain Pond anchoring its southern edge. Moving northward, the terrain is characterized by the meandering courses of Fifteenmile Cr and Stocking Head Cr, which are spanned by named crossings such as Jones Bridge and Cassidy Bridge.

Genealogical interest is high throughout the rural areas surrounding Oliff-town and Union. Numerous family burial grounds, including Stripling Cem, Oliff Cem, and Dekle Cem, are scattered across the quadrangle, reflecting generations of local land ownership. These rural sites are connected by an extensive system of numbered county roads and named lanes like Rosemary Church Rd, illustrating the persistent settlement patterns of Candler County.
