About this map

Columbus and the settlement of Midland occupy the heart of this landscape along the border of Muscogee and Harris Counties. The map reveals a highly developed network of residential expansion and local infrastructure, characterized by a series of man-made lakes and reservoirs designed for water management and recreation. Significant among these are Bull Creek Reservoir Number One and Bull Creek Watershed Lake Number 24, which anchor the drainage patterns near Schatulga and the Columbus Division.

Genealogical interest is found in the scattered family and community burial grounds, such as Russel Cem near Jenkins Lake and the McFarlan Cem further east. The transition from the established community of Flat Rock to the growing suburban corridors is marked by named features like Stonewall Jackson Lake and Britton Ponds, illustrating the transformation of the Georgia Piedmont into a modern metropolitan periphery.
