About this map

Osierfield serves as the primary focal point of this South Georgia landscape, situated at the junction of the Douglas Hwy and Broxton Hwy. This 2014 survey documents a territory defined by its agricultural layout and small, family-associated landmarks. Numerous cemeteries, such as Osierfield Cem, McMillan Cem, and Dicksons Cem, are distributed across the countryside, reflecting the area's established family history and local genealogy.

Water systems like the Seventeen Mile River on the eastern edge and Dicksons Millpond to the northwest indicate a terrain shaped by slow-moving creeks and drainage basins. Distinctive water bodies including Faulkner Lake N, Faulkner Lake S, and Jowers Lake N suggest a history of land management and irrigation in this rural pocket of Irwin County. The presence of several churches, including New Bethel and Saint Pauls, further anchors the social landscape of the early 21st century.
