About this map

The Satilla River meanders through this portion of Southeast Georgia, carving out a series of distinctive bluffs including Honey Bluff, Abrams Bluff, and Radfords Bluff. The landscape is defined by its numerous oxbow lakes and wetlands, such as Deerwood Lake and Atkinson Lake, which reflect the river's historical shifts. At the northern end of the map, the community of Waynesville serves as a local hub, connected to Atkinson by the corridor of Us 82 E.

Genealogists will find a wealth of family history markers across the quadrangle, with several established burial grounds including Gibson Cem, Wiggens Cem, and Highsmith Cem near the primary settlements. Further south, near the junction of Ga-110 and the community of Salter, the map documents Daniels Cem and Homeward Cem. The presence of Happy Landing and various named trails like Ft Barrington Trl and Fort Tyler Trl suggests a terrain shaped by long-standing transit routes through the swampy lowlands.
