2017 Map of Sanford

About this map

Sanford sits at the junction of several county roads in a landscape defined by the winding tributaries of the Chattahoochee River basin. This rural area in Southwest Georgia is characterized by its dispersed settlements like Union and Sugar Hill, linked by a network of historic transit routes including Coffington Rd and Graddy Rd. The terrain is deeply etched by numerous waterways, most notably Hodchodkee Cr and the N Fork Bustahatchee Cr, which are crossed by local landmarks such as Ray Bridge and Lawson Bridge. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of family and community landmarks like Hogan Cem and County Line Cem. The presence of Pearces Pond and Phillips Pond in the southern reaches highlights the region's reliance on localized water resources for agriculture and drainage in the early 21st century.
