2011 Map of Wrens

About this map

Wrens and Stapleton anchor this Jefferson County landscape, where the agricultural traditions of eastern Georgia are marked by numerous family and community burial grounds. Several millponds, including Stapleton Millpond and Gamble Mill Pond, indicate a history of water-powered industry along the regional drainages of Big Creek and Duhart Creek. The map documents a transition from traditional rural routes like Stone Springfield Chur Rd and Old Stapleton Rd to modern infrastructure like the Wrens Memorial Airport. Local genealogy is well-represented through numerous dedicated plots such as Berryhill Cemetery, Vining Cemetery, and Stone Springfield Cemetery. South of the main settlements, the topography is defined by the convergence of several branches, including Fishpond Branch and Stephens Branch, which feed into larger local ponds and reservoirs like Adams Lake.
