2014 Map of Talmo

About this map

The Satilla River and Seventeen Mile River converge in this corner of Ware County, defining a landscape of low-lying wetlands and creek systems. Small settlements like Talmo and Sappville are centered along the thoroughfares, while agricultural and rural heritage is evidenced by family and community landmarks such as the Chauncey Cem and Walden Cem. The road network, including the Albany Hwy and Douglas Hwy, connects these dispersed communities across the drainage basins of Fullwood Cr and Hog Cr. North of the river junctions, Gerbin Lake and King o Lee Lake provide distinct water features amidst the pine-heavy terrain. The map's layout of named roads like Old Nicholls Hwy and Telmore Dixie Union Rd reveals a transition from traditional river-based orientation to a modern regional highway system.
