About this map

Fairfax, Hasty, and Sappville anchor the southern landscape of this Ware County territory, where a complex network of wetlands and river systems defines the topography. The Satilla River and Seventeen Mile River converge here, joined by tributaries such as Fullwood Creek and Pullwood Creek. This hydraulic environment is characterized by wide floodplains and distinctive terrain features like Big Bens Den, reflecting the natural drainage patterns of South Georgia's coastal plain.

Local history is preserved through scattered burial grounds and rural landmarks, including the Hephzibah Baptist Church-Cem in the northeast and smaller family plots like Chauncey Cem and Davis Cem. Small impoundments such as Gerbin Lake and King O Lee Lake dot the northern reaches, while a dense grid of named rural roads—including Telmore Church Rd and Fales Rd—connects the established settlements and outlying homesteads.
