2017 Map of Omaha

About this map

The Chattahoochee River forms the central spine of this region, marking the state boundary between Alabama and Georgia. In this corner of Russell and Stewart counties, the landscape is defined by the expansive Walter F George Reservoir and the numerous tributaries that feed it, including Hatchechubbee Creek and Hannahatchee Creek. The settlement of Cottonton sits west of the water, while Omaha is positioned on the Georgia side, connected by the Joseph Wilson Smith Bridge. This area exhibits a pattern of rural clusters and family landmarks, such as Thomas Cem and Wesley Chapel Cem, which reflect the long-standing agricultural and community ties of the river valley. Smaller locales like Loflin, Hirsch, and Holy Trinity are linked by a network of winding roads like Firetower Rd and Cottonton Rd, tracing the high ground above the creek bottoms.
