About this map

Midland and its surrounding communities in eastern Muscogee County are defined by a complex network of small lakes and water management structures. The landscape is heavily dissected by Bull Creek and Dozier Creek, which feed into numerous named reservoirs such as Faulkner Lake, Jenkins Lake, and the Britton Ponds. These water bodies are often associated with private or municipal engineering, including the Stonewall Jackson Dam and several Bull Creek Watershed structures.

Genealogists can find significant local history in the cluster of small family and community burial grounds, including Jenkin Cemetery, Russel Cemetery, and Willis Cemetery. The map reflects a period of residential expansion around Foxrun and Gordydale, where traditional rural roads like Warm Springs Rd and Chattsworth Rd interface with newer developments like Beaver Run. The concentration of dams and named ponds suggests a transition from purely agricultural use to managed residential and recreational landscapes.
