Waynesville and Atkinson anchor this survey of the Georgia coastal plain, where the winding Satilla River defines the western landscape. The river's influence is seen in the series of distinctive riverbank features such as Honey Bluff, Abrams Bluff, and Lord King Bluff, alongside numerous oxbow lakes like Atkinson Lake and Ditch Lake. This area of Brantley County is characterized by a high concentration of family and community burial grounds, providing a significant resource for genealogical research. Documented sites include Ammons Cem in the north and Highsmith Cem near the heart of Waynesville. Further south, the settlement of Salter is surrounded by Daniels Cem and Homeward Cem, set within a landscape of expansive wetlands like the Little Satilla River Swamp and Brailey Swamp.
