About this map

Sylvania and its northern surroundings appear here as a landscape defined by small rural hubs and a network of named creek branches in eastern Georgia. The layout of the land reflects a traditional agricultural and residential pattern, with the larger settlement of Sylvania giving way to smaller communities like Bascom, Lewis, and Hiltonia. Local family and community history is preserved through numerous burial sites including Bascom Cem, Lewis Cem, and Waters Cem.

Water features like Beaverdam Cr, Ogeechee Cr, and Lewis Pond dominate the drainage across the terrain, while the road network connects these points via routes such as Millen Hwy and Burtons Ferry Hwy. This detailed look at Screven County captures the quiet infrastructure of the region, from the Industrial Park Rd to the scattered farms and homes that comprise the settlements of Waters and Zeigler.
