About this map

The Chattahoochee River forms the northwestern boundary of this Coweta County landscape, where the northern expansion of Newnan meets a series of established mill settlements and mid-century subdivisions. This period of the county's development is characterized by the conversion of land along Wahoo Creek and Cedar Creek into residential clusters like Sherwood Forest and Willow Creek Subdivision. The area around Sargent and Arnco Mills retains the structure of Georgia's industrial past, while the large-scale Dunaway Gardens and the expansive Lake Redwine reflect more modern land use patterns north of the city center.

Genealogists and local historians will find a dense concentration of burial sites, from the prominent Oak Hill Cemetery and Forest Lawn Memorial Park to family-named grounds such as the George W Smith Cemetery, Leigh-Potts Cemetery, and Andrews Cemetery. Water management is a defining feature of the terrain, with numerous dams creating reservoirs like Brown Reservoir and Ross Lake, which once powered local industry at sites like Sewell Millpond.
