About this map

The Canoochee River and Fifteenmile Cr define the hydrological character of this portion of Candler County, where a series of river crossings link the rural landscape. Distinctive river landmarks such as Turner Bridge, Dutch Ford Bridge, Flat Ford Bridge, Cowart Bridge, and Green Bridge illustrate the historic importance of these waterways for local transit. Outside the municipal boundary of Metter, the terrain is marked by numerous family-named landmarks and water bodies including Brannen Lake, Glisson Lake, and Hensley Lake. Local history and genealogy researchers will find several well-defined burial grounds across the area, including Dixon Grove Cem, Everitt Cem, and Holland Cem, which sit alongside a network of country roads like Old Pence Farm Rd and Dixon Grove Cir. The presence of the Metter Municipal Airport at the northern edge indicates the shift toward modern infrastructure in this traditional agricultural and wetlands corridor.
