About this map

The agricultural and rural landscape of northern Georgia unfolds across the border of Gordon and Bartow counties. This area is anchored by the small communities of Farmville, Sonoraville, and Folsom, where the road network reveals a pattern of tight-knit settlements and family-named landmarks. The terrain is defined by complex hydrology, with Pine Log Creek, Salacoa Creek, and Jacks Creek carving through the valleys.

Genealogists will find a wealth of specific local history through the numerous small burial grounds and places of worship, such as the Cedar Creek Baptist Church Cem and the Franklin Graveyard. Remnants of earlier industry and local infrastructure are visible at Yarbroughs Mill and Hopgood Bridge. The map captures a moment in time where rural homesteads and family cemeteries like the Barton Family Cem and Happy Hollow Cem remain preserved amidst the evolving landscape of the South.
