About this map

The Withlacoochee River defines the landscape of the Georgia borderlands between Brooks and Lowndes counties, winding through a network of southern tributaries. The small settlement of Ousley is centered along the East-West corridor of the Old Quitman Highway and Thomasville Road, supported by the neighboring communities of Durden and Blue Springs. This area is characterized by its agricultural drainage systems, where Millrace Creek and Tiger Creek feed into the river's basin.

Local history is anchored by the Lebanon Cem near Monument Church Road, serving as a primary genealogical landmark for the surrounding rural homesteads. To the southeast, the terrain transitions into the wetlands surrounding Langdale Lake. The map details the dense web of county roads and named family routes like Studstill Rd and Cates Rd that have facilitated timber and farm transport in this riverine corridor for generations.
