About this map

The Alapaha River meanders through the heart of Wilcox County, defining a landscape of wetlands and low-lying basins in this recent study of south-central Georgia. The agricultural and small-town character of the region is centered on the settlements of Pitts and Seville, which are connected by a corridor of transport and utility infrastructure including Railroad St. Numerous small family and community burial grounds, such as Snow Hill Cem and Union Cem, are scattered across the terrain, providing essential landmarks for genealogical research and local history.

Water features dominate the southern and western portions of the map, where Sargent Lake and McBryant Lake sit amidst complex drainage patterns near Double Run Cr. The county line between Crisp Co and Wilcox Co is clearly delineated to the west, marking the transition between these rural jurisdictions. This map serves as a detailed record of land use and property boundaries in a region where the traditional economy remains tied to the river system and local road networks like Rochelle Rd.
