About this map

Sharon and the nearby rural settlements of Barnett, Raytown, and Hillman define this stretch of the Georgia Piedmont, straddling the border of Taliaferro and Warren Counties. The landscape is densely packed with family and community burial grounds, revealing a deep genealogical heritage in the area. Key sites such as Sandy Cross Cem, Stewart Edwards Cem, and Chapman Rhodes Cem are scattered across the rolling terrain, often positioned near local watersheds like Harden Cr and Reedy Cr.

The transportation network is characterized by historic corridors such as Crawfordville Rd and Atlanta Hwy, which connect these small agricultural centers. The pattern of settlement is particularly evident around Sharon, where roads like Raytown Rd NE and Washington Rd NE converge. Water bodies including the Little River and Beaverdam Cr provide the primary natural boundaries in an area otherwise defined by its long-standing rural community ties.
