About this map

The crossroads of Shady Dale and Machen define the southern landscape of this Jasper County survey, where the rural topography is carved by the Little River and its numerous tributaries. Small family and community landmarks, such as Providence Baptist Cem and Shady Dale Cem, are scattered throughout the agricultural tracts, providing essential markers for genealogical research in this part of Georgia.

Boundaries for Jasper, Morgan, and Putnam counties converge near the Little River and Gap Creek, highlighting a region shaped by historic land divisions and early transit routes like Little River Rd. The southeastern portion of the map transitions into the protected timberlands of the Oconee National Forest, while northern settlements like Pennington and Godfrey remain anchored by long-standing local roads and small water bodies such as Vason Lake and McComb Lake.
