2011 Map of Willacoochee

About this map

Willacoochee serves as the primary hub of activity in this south Georgia landscape, situated at the junction of rail and road corridors during the early twenty-first century. The surrounding terrain is defined by the winding course of the Alapaha River, which meanders southward through the center of the quadrangle, joined by the Willacoochee River in the northwest. Local history and genealogy are anchored by specific landmarks such as the Death Age Cemetery and Gaskins Cemetery, alongside the small community of Bannockburn. The map illustrates a network of rural routes like Coffee Rd and Springhead Church Rd that connect isolated farms and timberlands. Significant water features including Ruffin Creek, Pudding Creek, and the swampy expanse of Long Bay further characterize the lowland environment of Atkinson County.
