About this map

White Plains serves as the primary hub of this rural landscape, situated at a junction where Old Greensboro Rd and Sparta Rd meet. The area is defined by a series of creek drainages including Pierce Cr and Moores Cr, which feed into larger water systems across the Greene Co and Hancock Co borders. A distinctive feature near the Taliaferro County line is The Blue Hole, a water body that stands out among the localized drainage networks of Johnson Cr and Copeland Cr.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites scattered across the countryside, reflecting generations of family landholdings. These include the Clark - Webb - Simmons Family Cem and Baugh Family Cem in the south, as well as the Barnhart - Owens Cem near the western edge. Many of these sites, like the Moons Academy Cem, are reached by namesake routes such as Moons Academy Rd, indicating the historical placement of early community institutions near established family tracts.
