About this map

The agrarian landscape of Ocilla and the surrounding Irwin County countryside is defined by the winding course of Reedy Cr and its numerous tributaries. Small rural communities like Mystic and Pinetta serve as local anchors, connected by a network of county roads such as Five Bridges Rd and Bugle Lane Rd. The terrain is notable for its concentration of family and community burial grounds, including the Mystic Cem, Evertt Cem, and Piney Grove Cem, which provide significant points of interest for those researching local family lineages.

Water features are prominent throughout the area, with Lake Bettie and Gray Lake dotting the landscape alongside smaller drainages like Island Field Br and Stump Cr. This Georgia coastal plain environment, mapped by the U.S. Geological Survey, reflects a region deeply tied to its hydrology and traditional settlement patterns, where small church-related sites like Old Valley Grove Cem and New Valley Grove Cem mark established social centers.
