2011 Map of Sumner

About this map

The town of Sumner anchors this landscape in southwest Georgia, featuring the local Sumner Post Office and several family and community landmarks. The area is defined by a dense network of waterways including the Little River, Ty Ty Creek, and Daniels Creek, which feed into local impoundments like Winfreds Lake and Wiltons Lake. The rural character of Worth County is evident in the numerous burial grounds scattered across the terrain, from the Old Sumner Cemetery to the Clements Chapel Cemetery and Millers Chapel Cemetery. These sites, along with the settlement of Terrell in the northwest, reflect the generational stability of this agricultural and creek-bottom region. The road network, including Shingler Little River Rd and Whiddon Mill Rd, connects isolated farmsteads and points of local industry such as the Ross Lake Dam.
