About this map

Chattahoochee River and the expanding waters of Lake Seminole dominate this landscape on the border of Georgia and Florida. The terrain transitions from The Flatwoods in the west to a karst-like topography in the east, characterized by numerous depressions and water bodies like Lewis Pond and Hammock Springs. The settlement pattern is defined by small, dispersed rural communities and family-named landmarks that reflect a deep-rooted agricultural history.

Genealogical interest is high throughout the quadrangle, with several family burying grounds including Williams Cem, Brunson Cem, and Dickenson Cem located near early road junctions. Religious life is well-documented through numerous small country churches such as Trinity Ch, Holy Neck Ch, and Riverturn Ch. The map also captures the recreational and conservation shift of the late 20th century, notably within the Apalachee State Wildlife Management Area and the Buena Vista Landing Campground Picnic Area.
