About this map

Redan and the surrounding DeKalb County landscape are defined by a complex network of tributaries feeding into the South River. This 2020 survey documents the modern suburban character of communities like Snapfinger and Belmont while preserving the location of significant cultural sites. Of particular note for local historians is the Flat Rock Slave Cem located near the Panola Shoals, a site reflecting the deep-rooted history of the region.

The map traces the winding paths of Snapfinger Creek and Barbashela Creek as they move through a terrain punctuated by landmarks like Panola Mountain and Horseshoe Bend. From the educational grounds of the Gupton Jones College of Funeral Service in the center to the rural-fringe crossing at News Bridge and Albert Shoals in the southeast, the document captures the intersection of residential growth and the enduring natural waterways of the Georgia Piedmont.
