2020 Map of Rentz

About this map

The southern outskirts of Dublin and the rural agricultural landscapes of Laurens County define this modern topographic survey. The area transitions from the educational hub of Oconee Fall Line Technical College near the northern edge down through a network of creeks and small settlements. Local history is anchored by the town of Rentz in the southwest corner and smaller named locales like Garretta, Harlow, and Vincent. The terrain is deeply carved by drainage systems including Turkey Creek, Bluewater Creek, and the headwaters of Reedy Springs Branch. Family-named landmarks and historical burial grounds such as Pearson Cemetery provide valuable geographic markers for genealogists tracing property lines and family origins in this part of Georgia. A series of small reservoirs, including Lamar Smith Lake, Greene Lake, and Bailey Lake, dot the low-lying areas between the county's rolling hills.
