2014 Map of Tarversville

About this map

Tarversville serves as the central hub of this Georgia landscape, where the intersections of modern thoroughfares like Ga-96 and Ga-87 overlay an older network of rural settlements. The topography is defined by a dense system of watercourses including Richland Cr, Savage Cr, and Shellstone Cr, which carve through the terrain and feed several named basins such as Hendrick Pond and Faulk Lake. This area, situated on the border of Twiggs Co and Bleckley Co, retains a strong connection to its family and community roots through its numerous burial grounds. Genealogists and local historians will find several notable sites, including New Hope Cem, Faulk Cem, and English Cem. The small settlements of Mount Olive and Mount Calvary stand as quiet landmarks within this rural expanse, connected by a web of local roads such as Adams Park Rd and Herrington Rd that trace the historical movement of residents between these dispersed communities.
