About this map

The Canoochee River and its intricate network of tributaries, including Fifteenmile Creek and Wolfe Creek, define this area of southeastern Georgia. The landscape is characterized by a high concentration of private impoundments and named water bodies such as Laniers Pond, Glisson Lake, and Hensley Lake, each supported by its own dam. This hydrological pattern reflects the regional reliance on managed water resources for agriculture and local recreation.

Transit across the river and creeks is facilitated by numerous named crossings, including Turner Bridge, Cowart Bridge, and the Dutch Ford Bridge. Connectivity is further established by an extensive system of rural routes like Walter Collins Rd and Dixon Grove Lake Church Rd. For genealogists and local researchers, the map identifies significant sites like the Everitt Cemetery and Holland Cemetery, as well as the Metter Municipal Airport at the northern edge of the quadrangle.
