2011 Map of Omaha

About this map

Holy Trinity and Cottonton anchor the landscape along the Alabama-Georgia border, where the Chattahoochee River widens into the Walter F George Reservoir. The 2011 survey reveals a territory defined by agricultural tradition and river-based industry, featuring localized settlements such as Omaha and Jernigan near the riverbanks. For those studying local lineage, the presence of the Thomas Cemetery, Wesley Chapel Cemetery, and the Wesley Chapel church provide critical geographic anchors. The area is crisscrossed by numerous waterways, including Hatchechubbee Creek and Snake Creek, which historically dictated the placement of landings and crossings. Industrial and public works like the Joseph Wilson Smith Bridge, the Power Place, and the Murrell Hill Lookout Tower illustrate the managed nature of this modern Southern river corridor.
