2020 Map of Warthen

About this map

Warthen and the northern fringes of Sandersville anchor this 2020 landscape in Washington County, where the topography is defined by an intricate network of waterways. The drainage pattern is led by Williamson Swamp Cr and Carters Mill Cr, feeding into a series of managed waters like the Gilmore Lake Pond Number One complex. This modern survey reflects a region where agricultural legacies persist through family-named roads such as Wilker Dairy Rd and Magnolia Farm Rd, while also documenting numerous small burial grounds that serve as vital touchstones for local genealogists. From the depths of Hardwood Hollow to the banks of Little Keg Cr, the map records the enduring rural character of central Georgia, tracing the relationship between small-town residential development and the natural draws and branches of the Oconee River watershed.
