About this map

Naylor and Greens Crossing anchor this 2017 study of the low-lying terrain along the Lanier Co and Lowndes Co line. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Alapaha River, which is fed by numerous tributaries including Dixon Mill Cr, Red Oak Br, and Grand Bay Cr. The area is notably saturated with cypress bays and wetlands such as Peters Bay, Fish Pond Bay, and Bennett Bay, reflecting the hydrologic character of the Coastal Plain.

Genealogists will find several family-named landmarks and historical sites, including James Cem, Sweet Prospect Cem, and Foreman Cem. Local aviation is represented by Christians Folly Airport, while infrastructure like the Dixon Mill Bridge and Hotchkiss Bridge span the local waterways. The map also highlights unique terrain features like The Rocks and named landforms such as George Carter Island Bay, providing a detailed look at the rural settlement patterns and natural drainage of southern Georgia.
