About this map

The community of Mountville serves as a primary anchor in this Troup County landscape, situated where Greenville Rd meets Chipley Mountville Rd. The area is characterized by a network of creeks, including Shoal Cr and Long Cane Cr, which weave through a terrain dotted with numerous family and community burial grounds such as Shiloh Cem, Heard Cem, and the Traylor Johnson Cem. These sites, along with the small settlements of Louise and Whitfield, provide essential markers for genealogical research in this part of Georgia.

Transportation corridors dominate the modern topography, with the interstate and major routes like Hogansville Rd cutting across the drainage basins of Panther Cr and Beech Cr. The map also captures several private and named water bodies, including Newberry Lake and Hanks Lake, reflecting the local transition from traditional agricultural lands to more varied land use in the early twenty-first century.
