2014 Map of Napoleon

About this map

The borderlands of Randolph Co and Heard County are defined by the winding course of Wehadkee Cr and its numerous tributaries. This survey captures the rural character of the region, where small settlements like Napoleon and Omaha serve as local hubs for the surrounding farmsteads and woodlands. The landscape is a network of ridges and creek valleys, notably the Wedowee Cr drainage and the distinct Horseshoe Bend loop. For genealogists, the map is particularly useful for its documentation of local burial grounds, including Big Springs Cem, High Point Cem, and the Highway Ridge Memorial Gardens. Modern infrastructure is represented by the north-south corridor of Highway 340, which connects the communities of Waldrep and Big Springs, while smaller roads like CR-87 provide access to more secluded water bodies such as Moores Pond and Higgins Lake.
