2017 Map of Nankin

About this map

The Withlacoochee River carves a winding path through the borderlands of Brooks and Lowndes County, defining a landscape of wet basins and elevated bluffs. Near the settlement of Nankin, the terrain is marked by a network of rural roads such as Clyattville-Nankin Rd and Old Madison Hwy, connecting family-named cemeteries and community landmarks. Genealogists will find several burial grounds of interest, including the Columbia Primitive Baptist Church Cem and Wade Cem. The river geography is particularly detailed here, featuring Godwin Bluff and the Rocky Ford Bridge crossing. Numerous water bodies like Fearnside Lake and Langdale Company Lake suggest a region shaped by timber interests and natural sinkhole topography, while the southern margin of the map traces the distinct boundary line between Georgia and Florida.
