About this map

The Newnan-Coweta County Airport and the expanding residential corridors of East Newnan define the landscape south of the city center in the early 21st century. This survey documents the transition from suburban subdivisions like Smokey Acres and Hearthstone Subdivision to the rural crossroads of Stephens Crossroad and Bohanon Crossroad. A sophisticated system of water management is evident through numerous reservoirs, including Newnan Waterworks Reservoir Number Five and Pearl Lake.

For family historians, the map is a vital record of local burial grounds, plotting several dozen sites including Old Bethlehem Cemetery, Mount Prospects Cemetery, and Southview Cemetery near the community of Moreland. The intricate network of local roads such as Millard Farmer Rd and Corinth Rd provides a clear view of how these small settlements and family-named landmarks are interconnected across the Georgia countryside.
