About this map

Pavo and Barwick straddle the boundary between Thomas County and Brooks County, anchoring a landscape of agricultural roads and scattered family cemeteries. The town of Pavo is defined by its grid of streets such as Harris St and Pear St, while the small settlement of Hollis lies further south. This region is punctuated by numerous small water bodies and wetlands, including Lake Nichols, Bryan Lake, and Lake Pope, which drain into systems like Mule Creek and Dry Lake Creek.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of burial sites across the quadrangle. From the Lebanon Cem near Pavo to the Beulah Hill Cem and Caulden Cem in the southeast, these landmarks provide a clear record of local family history and community centers. The network of county roads, including Old Pavo Rd and Talloaks Rd, connects these rural enclaves and reflects a persistent late-20th-century settlement pattern.
