2020 Map of Norristown

About this map

Norristown and the southwestern edge of Swainsboro anchor this landscape in Emanuel County, where the topography is defined by the winding course of the Little Ohoopee River. The map reveals a rural network of family-named roads such as Owen Bailey Rd and Frank Hutcheson Rd, connecting remote farmsteads to local landmarks. For those tracing family histories, several burial grounds are documented, including Lambs Cem, Old Thompson Cem, and Mount Zion Cem. The presence of the East Georgia Regional Airport in the northeast contrasts with the quiet wetlands of Youngblood Lake and McNeely Lake. The drainage patterns of Yam Grandy Cr and Rocky Cr illustrate the swampy lowlands that characterize this portion of the coastal plain, shaping the settlement and road layout around the various creek branches.
