About this map

Milan and Chauncey serve as the primary hubs of this South Georgia landscape, situated along a prominent transportation corridor shared by the railroad and major thoroughfares. The terrain is defined by a complex network of wetlands and watercourses, including the meandering Gum Swamp Creek to the north and Turnpike Cr to the south. Numerous ponds such as Bell Pond, Brown Pond, and Cadwell Pond are scattered across the quadrangle, illustrating the low-lying, water-rich nature of the region.

Local history is preserved in the numerous family and community burial grounds found throughout the area, such as Sanders Cemetery, Antioch Cemetery, and Hamilton Cemetery. The map also captures the boundary line between Dodge and Telfair counties. The road network, including routes like Milan Chauncey Road and El Bethel Church Road, connects these agricultural communities and religious landmarks, providing a clear view of the rural settlement patterns that have persisted into the twenty-first century.
