About this map

Summertown and the crossroads communities of Blun, Modoc, and Old Dellwood anchor this landscape defined by the branching tributaries of the Canoochee River system. The drainage patterns of North Prong Canoochee Creek and South Prong Canoochee Creek dictate the local geography, feeding into impoundments like Jenkins Pond and Bell Lake. These water sources were critical to early industry and agriculture, evidenced by the Jenkins Pond Dam and Bell Lake Dam structures.

Local family history is preserved in several small burial grounds scattered across the quadrangle, including the Moxley Cemetery near the South Prong and the Hawhammock Cemetery to the southeast. A network of rural routes, such as Rudy Scarboro Rd and Hawhammock Church Rd, connects these persistent settlements, reflecting a transition from traditional agrarian life to the modern rural infrastructure seen in the early 21st century.
