About this map

Screven and Offerman anchor this Wayne County landscape, where the local economy and geography are defined by a network of waterways and rural corridors. The Little Satilla River and its primary tributary, Little Satilla Creek, dominate the central drainage, while Big Satilla Creek flows through the western portion of the quadrangle. The infrastructure reflects a long-standing agricultural and timber heritage, seen in routes like Stage Coach Rd and Sawmill Rd, which connect scattered family homesteads and local landmarks.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including Clay Hill Cemetery, Foster Cemetery, and Moody Cemetery. Notable landmarks like the Screven Post Office and the Doctor McKee Hargrett Bridge serve as modern reference points for this coastal plain community. The mapping of smaller water bodies like Tiger Creek and Sixty Foot Branch provides a clear view of the low-lying terrain typical of this part of Georgia.
