2011 Map of Waterloo

About this map

Waterloo and the surrounding Georgia countryside are defined by a complex network of wetlands and man-made ponds. The landscape is dotted with small family and community burial grounds, including Waterloo Cemetery, Eureka Cemetery, and Macedonia Cemetery, which serve as vital markers for local genealogical research. The Alapaha River moves through the eastern portion of the area, bordered by a dense cluster of named water bodies such as Graveyard Lake, Redbug Lake, and Shikel Lake. These water features, many controlled by structures like the Bisbin Lake Dam or Lathon Lake Dam, reflect the importance of local water management for agriculture and recreation. Small settlements like Harding and Brighton anchor the southern roads, while landmarks like Eureka Church remain central to the community's geography.
