About this map

The town of Willacoochee sits at a geographic crossroads in South Georgia, positioned where the Alapaha River and Willacoochee River converge. This 2017 survey shows a landscape defined by the winding river systems and extensive wetland basins, including Meeting House Bay, Long Bay, and Camp Bay. The street grid of the main settlement is dense with local history identifiers like Main St and Savannah Ave, while the surrounding rural areas are marked by family-named roads and remote landmarks.

Genealogists and local historians will find the locations of Death Age Cem and Gaskins Cem particularly useful for tracing family roots in this corner of Atkinson and Berrien Counties. The mapping of minor waterways such as Pudding Creek and Ruffin Creek illustrates the complex drainage patterns that have historically shaped agriculture and settlement in the region. To the south, the smaller community of Bannockburn appears along the highway, connected to the larger town by the main arterial road network.
