2017 Map of Sumner

About this map

Sumner and Terrell anchor this agricultural landscape in Southwest Georgia, situated where the borders of Worth, Turner, and Tift Counties converge. The topography is defined by the winding course of the Little River and numerous tributaries like Big Br, Little Cr, and Daniels Cr. This 2017 survey reveals a deeply rooted rural community, evidenced by a high density of generational burial sites such as Sumner Cem, the Old Sumner Cem, and Millers Chapel Cem. The area’s hydrology is notable for several established water bodies, including Winfreds Lake, Wiltons Lake, and Cravey Pond. Local roads often follow family names or geographic landmarks, such as Shepherd Rd and Tifton Worth Co Line Rd, illustrating the intersection of private landholdings and civil boundaries in this established farming region.
