About this map

The Florida-Georgia state line bisects this landscape, separating the rural reaches of Gadsden and Decatur Counties. To the south, the settlement of Gretna serves as a local hub, connected to the nearby community of Mount Pleasant and the small residential cluster at Hardaway. The geography is defined by a network of drainage ways and small water bodies, including S Mosquito Creek, Hurricane Branch, and Pitman Branch.

Genealogists will find significant local history preserved in the various burial grounds and small hamlets scattered across the terrain. Rural life is anchored by locations such as Hannatown, where the Hannatown Cemetery is located, and the Mount Glory Cemetery further east. The map also documents named natural features like F J Betts Pond and C W Thomas Lake, which provided water and recreation for generations of residents living along the old Hutchinson Ferry Road.
