2017 Map of Midway

About this map

Midway and Magnolia anchor this Clinch County landscape, characterized by a complex network of wetlands and namesake islands. The terrain is defined by numerous shallow water bodies including Big Water Pond, Jordan Bay, and Tower Bay, which are interspersed with higher ground labeled as Turkey Island and Knight Island. This geography creates a unique spatial pattern where small settlements and rural homesteads are connected by a grid of named farm roads such as Strickland Rd and Jernigan Farm Rd. Local heritage is preserved in several rural burial grounds that dot the area, including Griffis Cem, Hard Scramble Cem, and Chauncey Cem. The drainage of the region is facilitated by numerous small watercourses like Tatum Cr, Mill Br, and Sugar Br, which slowly navigate the low-lying interior of southern Georgia.
