2014 Map of Norristown

About this map

The Little Ohoopee River and its numerous tributaries, including Covena Br and Open Cr, define the drainage patterns of this Emanuel County landscape. Modern infrastructure like the Emanuel County Airport and Us-80 intersect with older rural landmarks that reflect the area's social history. Small communities center around Norristown and Norristown Junction, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with family and community burial grounds such as Lambs Cem, Old Thompson Cem, and Union Cem. The presence of the Ebenezer Church and its adjacent Ebenezer Cem provides a focal point for local genealogical research. This survey illustrates the transition from traditional agricultural land use toward modern transportation and aviation needs, all while maintaining the footprints of early 21st-century rural settlements.
