Wilsonville serves as the focal point of this South Georgia landscape, situated north of the Seventeen Mile River along the border of Coffee and Ware Counties. The area is defined by a dense network of country roads named for local families, including Andrew Tanner Rd, Jessie Whitley Rd, and Ronnie Walker Rd. These thoroughfares connect a series of small, dispersed burial grounds such as Hollis Cem, Forest Grove Cem, and Roxie Mae Cem, which provide significant value for genealogical research in this rural corridor. The terrain is shaped by low-lying drainage systems including Dry Cr and Cat Cr, which flow toward the larger Twentynine Mile Cr. This 2014 survey documents the persistence of traditional land divisions and family-named landmarks in a region largely dedicated to forestry and agriculture.
