2017 Map of Stockton

About this map

The boundary between Lanier Co and Clinch Co anchors this coastal plain landscape, where the settlements of Stockton and Du Pont sit along a primary transportation corridor. The terrain is defined by a dense network of swampy depressions or "bays," including Clothespole Bay, Timmerman Bay, and Pigeon Bay, which punctuate the pine-heavy lowlands. These features, along with winding watercourses like Suwanoochee Cr and Cow Cr, dictated the placement of local roads such as Horage Rd and Buck Rd. The map illustrates a contemporary pattern of rural Georgia land use, with small communities like Greenwood and various farms accessed by a web of county routes and trails like Buckcreek Trl.
