2020 Map of Portal

About this map

The town of Portal serves as the central hub of this South Georgia landscape, where agricultural land meets the winding tributaries of Lotts Cr and Mill Cr. The map details a rural network of small settlements including Piddleville and Aaron, surrounded by family-named ponds and groves that speak to the area's deep-rooted landownership. Notable water features like Parrish Lake, Lake Collins, and East Oglesby Pond are interspersed with several small creeks such as Panther Br and Wyatts Br. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous recorded burial sites across the Bulloch County countryside, from the Portal Cem near the town center to more secluded locations like the Mincy Cem, Franklin Cem, and Scarboro Grove Cem. The map's layout reflects a transition from traditional farming tracts to a more modern road network, while maintaining the historical placement of churches and cemeteries.
