About this map

Morgan Valley and the historic settlement of Van Wert anchor the northern landscape of this Polk County region, where the terrain begins its ascent toward Signal Mountain and Vinson Mountain. The map reveals a transition from these upland peaks down to the Tallapoosa River in the southwest, with the land etched by numerous waterways including Euharlee Creek and Thomasson Creek. This 2011 survey documents a mix of traditional agricultural land and modern recreational conversions, notably the Silver Comet Trl following an old railroad corridor.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and resting places, such as Maple Springs Cemetery, Holly Springs Cemetery, and the Ezell B Garner Cemetery. Local history is further preserved through labels like Hicks Prospect and White Bottom, alongside numerous small reservoirs like Crawford Lake and Lake Dorene that speak to the managed water resources of the Georgia Piedmont.
