About this map

Strouds and Horns Crossroads anchor this landscape where the boundaries of Lamar, Monroe, and Upson counties converge. This 2014 survey reflects a rural Georgia Piedmont character, defined by family-named cemeteries and small community clusters like Redbone and Brent. The terrain is carved by the headwaters of Little Tobesofkee Cr and Echeconnee Cr, with several small impoundments such as Pierson Lake and Pippin Lake scattered throughout the drainage basins.

For genealogists and local historians, the high density of burial sites provides significant research value. From the Sardis Cem and Harris Cem in the west to the Bird Cem in the east, these markers pinpoint the ancestral footprints of the area's early residents. The road network, including names like Clemonts Ford Rd and Old Zebulon Rd, follows the ancient contours of the land, connecting these historical nodes through the undulating woodland and agricultural fields that have long sustained the local economy.
