2017 Map of Rupert

About this map

Charing and Rupert anchor this agricultural landscape in central Georgia, where Taylor, Schley, and Macon counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Whitewater Cr, Rambulette Cr, and Cedar Cr, which likely supported early industry as evidenced by Rogers Mill Lake. The settlement pattern follows established routes like the Americus Hwy and State Rte 127, with numerous family-named roads such as Henry Barrow Rd and D Harris Farm Rd reflecting deep local lineage. For genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of significant burial grounds including Bloodworth Cem, Sand Bethel Cem, and Prosperity Cem, which serve as landmarks for the surrounding rural communities. Small water bodies like Garretts Pond dot the creek valleys, marking the transition from upland farms to bottomland drainages.
