About this map

The town of Milan sits at the intersection of railroad lines and rural roads on this south-central Georgia landscape. Settled along the S Railroad St corridor, the town serves as a local hub near the Milan City Cemetery. Further north, the community of Chauncey is situated along N Railroad Ave and Sugar Creek, marking another historical rail-oriented settlement. The area is characterized by a network of family-named roads and agricultural lands, including Marion Sheffield Rd and Jerry Wahl Rd.

Genealogists will find a significant number of burial sites scattered throughout the quadrangle, such as Antioch Cemetery, Hamilton Cemetery, and the McMillan Cemetery in the northeast corner. Water features like Turnpike Creek and Gum Swamp Creek drain the low-lying terrain, with several engineered points such as the Cadwell Pond Dam and Bell Pond Dam indicating local water management for agriculture or private estates.
