About this map

Bacon County and Coffee County meet along a boundary line that bisects this coastal plain landscape, characterized by numerous small lakes and meandering creek branches. The unincorporated community of Sessoms serves as a central point in an area defined by agricultural family plots and rural cemeteries, including Meeks Cem and Roberts Cem. Further east, the town of Alma anchors the map, supported by the nearby Bacon County Airport and the settlement of Guysie.

Water plays a significant role in the topography here, with drainage systems like Little Hurricane Cr and Brushy Cr feeding into larger catchments such as Whiddons Millpond and Bryant and Futch Lake. The map reveals a network of local roads named for prominent families and landmarks, such as Campground Church Rd and Stewart Cemetery Rd, illustrating the enduring local history and community structure of this South Georgia region.
