About this map

Hurricane Cr and its tributaries define the low-lying landscape of the Georgia coastal plain along the borders of Appling, Jeff Davis, and Bacon Counties. This modern survey illustrates a region where family lineages are deeply etched into the topography through numerous rural burying grounds. Genealogists can locate Zoar Cem in the northeast, while Simmons Cem, Yawn Cem, and Wilson Cem are found across the central and western reaches. The drainage pattern of Big Satilla Cr and Whitehead Cr informs the placement of historic farm roads like Bridgeford Church Rd and Philadelphia Church Rd. In the southern portion, McKinnon Lake and Anderson Lake provide significant water features amidst a network of timberlands and agricultural tracts reached by Co Rd 131 and Duncan Hand Rd.
