2014 Map of Ola

About this map

Tussahaw Cr and its tributaries carve a network of valleys across this section of Henry County, illustrating the transition from traditional rural crossroads to modern residential development. Small community centers like Ola and Unity Grove serve as anchors in a landscape where numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Harkness Cem and Antioch Cem, remain preserved among newer subdivisions. The topography is defined by significant water bodies, including the large Lake Ola and Hardeman Lake near McDonough. To the north, the boundary between Newton Co and Henry Co follows the course of the South River, while the presence of Old Sharon Cem and Old Mt Bethel Cem offers tangible connection points for genealogists tracing early families in the area. This 2014 survey documents the dense secondary road network, such as Ga-81 and Old Jackson Rd, that connects these historic settlements.
