About this map

The Ogeechee River snakes through the central landscape of this Georgia region, creating a network of oxbows and secondary channels like the Dead River. Along the northern banks, the settlement of Midville serves as a primary hub, containing the Midville Post Office and the Midville City Cemetery. The terrain is defined by its water management and agricultural heritage, evidenced by several impoundments such as Wells Pond, McKinney Pond, and Sapp Pond.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of family-named burial grounds scattered across the rural acreage, including the Murphree Cemetery, Nasworthy Cemetery, Cross Cemetery, and Sherrod Cemetery. These sites are linked by a grid of named local routes like Henry Rowland Rd and Webb-Hand Rd, which connect the main town to smaller locales like Herndon and Three Points. The numerous creek systems, including Big Long Creek and Bark Camp Creek, further illustrate the historical reliance on these waterways for local boundaries and irrigation.
