About this map

Pine Mountain and Oak Mountain dominate this corner of West Georgia where Meriwether, Harris, and Talbot Counties meet. The landscape is defined by these prominent ridges, which dictate the drainage of numerous small watercourses like Pigeon Creek, Sparks Creek, and Mulberry Creek. The town of Shiloh sits centrally along the highway corridor, supported by smaller settlements such as Nebula, Bulloch Crossroads, and Carlisle Gap.

Genealogists will find several family and community landmarks, including Tramell Cemetery, Shiloh Cemetery, and Macedonia Cemetery. The northern portion of the map features the famous Warm Springs area and landmarks like Dowdell Knob, while the southern slopes descend toward Oak Mountain Spring. The network of local roads, such as Trammell Mill Road and Wolfden Branch Road, follows the natural contours of the mountain passes and valley floors.
