About this map

The J. Strom Thurmond Reservoir dominates this landscape where Lincoln, Columbia, McDuffie, and Wilkes counties converge. Modern infrastructure and residential development are evident through the network of local roads like Amity Woodlawn Rd and Leathersville Rd, serving established communities such as Amity, Leathersville, and Woodlawn. The presence of several historic burial sites, including Saint Pauls Methodist Church Cem, Hogan Cem, and Old Griffin Cem, provides essential points of reference for genealogists and local historians tracking family roots in this corner of Georgia.

Water plays a central role in the area's geography, with the reservoir's expansive reach following the contours of the land at Raysville Bend. Smaller watercourses such as Little Cr, Lloyd Cr, and Dozier Br drain the surrounding hills. The map illustrates a transition toward recreational and residential use near the water, particularly around Winfield Hill and Clay Hill, while inland areas like Loco and New Hope maintain their rural crossroads character.
