2014 Map of Sandy Springs

About this map

The Chattahoochee River carves a deep boundary between Cobb and Fulton Counties, anchoring the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area. This landscape is defined by the transition from suburban development to the protected river corridor, featuring prominent water bodies like Willow Point Lake and the dangerous waters of Devils Race Course Shoals. Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial sites, including Antioch Cem, Sardis Cem, and Heards Cem, which pepper the residential enclaves of Indian Hills and Sibley Forest. The map documents a mature suburban infrastructure in Sandy Springs and Smyrna, connected by vital spans such as the Johnson Ferry Bridge. Local history is preserved in the names of landmarks like Blackjack Mtn and various shoals that once dictated the river's navigation and industrial utility.
