2014 Map of Warthen

About this map

Warthen serves as the central hub of this Georgia landscape, situated at the junction of Ga-102 and Ga-15. The area is characterized by a complex network of waterways that defined early industry and agriculture, including the meandering Williamson Swamp Cr and the waters of Mays Millpond. Family history is deeply rooted here, evidenced by several small burial grounds such as Taylor Cem and Murphy Cem which are tucked away near rural routes like Linton Rd and Peavy Ln. To the south, the landscape transitions toward a series of managed water bodies, most notably the Gilmore Lake Pond Number One and Gilmore Lake Number Three systems. This topography reveals the persistent importance of local timber and farmland, with landmarks like Adams Lake and Walker Pond dotting the drainages of Carters Mill Cr and Little Keg Cr.
