2011 Map of Talmo

About this map

The Satilla River and its southern tributaries define this landscape south of Waycross, Georgia, where small communities and family-named roads mark a largely agricultural and woodland region. Settlements like Talmo, Sappville, and Hasty serve as local hubs along a network of routes such as Telmore Church Rd and Old Nicholls Hwy. The drainage of the Seventeen Mile River converges with the Satilla in the west, while smaller man-made reservoirs like King O Lee Lake and Gerbin Lake populate the northern reaches. For local historians and genealogists, the map preserves the locations of the Chauncey Cemetery and Walden Cemetery, which are central to the heritage of this rural corner of Ware County. The road network, including family landmarks like Wattell Davis Rd and Robert Gibbs Ln, illustrates the long-standing land divisions and ancestral properties of the area.
