2018 Map of Twin Springs

About this map

The Walter F George Reservoir forms a broad watery boundary between Alabama and Georgia in this 2018 survey, defining the landscape around Eufaula and the rural communities of Twin Springs and Florence. The map documents a territory rich in local history, marked by small family and community burial grounds such as Union Grove Cem, McClendon Cem, and Old Zion Hill Cem. These sites, along with Trinity Cem and Florence Cem, provide critical touchstones for genealogists tracing roots in Barbour and Russell Counties. The landscape transition from the reservoir’s edge to the inland woods is carved by numerous watercourses, including Little Barbour Cr, Cool Br, and Talipahoga Rum Cr. Settlements like Jernigan and Coffinton represent the enduring rural character of this borderland, where modern routes like N Eufaula Ave meet quiet country lanes like Artesian Well Trail.
