The border of Worth and Tift Counties defines this South Georgia landscape, where the agricultural community of Ty Ty serves as a primary hub for the surrounding countryside. This survey captures a rural network of farm-to-market roads and watercourses that have long shaped the region's character. To the west, the settlement of Sumner sits near the headwaters of Ty Ty Creek, while the southern reaches are anchored by Scooterville. The map is particularly valuable for genealogical research, documenting numerous small burial grounds such as New Prospect Cemetery, Pine Hill Cemetery, and Salem Cemetery. The terrain is marked by a complex system of minor drainages including Lolly Creek and Johns Creek, punctuated by significant water bodies like Harold Lake and Patterson Lake. This infrastructure of small roads and remote churches illustrates the persistent rural settlement patterns of the Georgia coastal plain.
