About this map

Yonkers and Roddy anchor this rural landscape in Dodge County, where the terrain is defined by a complex network of wetlands and drainage basins. The area is heavily intersected by Gum Swamp Creek and its various tributaries, including Little Gum Swamp Creek and Walton Cr. This low-lying hydrology is further emphasized by several still-water features such as Milton Tripp Lake, Tripp Pond E, and Tripp Pond W in the southwest quadrant.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the mapped family burial grounds, including the Rogers-Darsey Cem, Douglas Cem, and Lister Cem. The road network, featuring names like Macedonia Church Rd and Ocmulgee Church Rd, suggests the historical locations of community centers in a landscape primarily dedicated to agriculture and timber. The eastern edge is marked by the settlement of Bryant, connected to the wider region via the Eastman-Chester Hwy.
