This is not a project for profiles, but one to collect reference links and historical maps for comparison to assist with genealogical research in the state of Georgia.
Geographical and political boundaries have played a tremendous part in the history of Georgia.
From [https://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org/articles/geography-environment/.... Geographic Regions of Georgia]
The diverse landscapes of Georgia result from geological and climatic forces working throughout time, with some recent direct influence from human activities. Georgia encompasses parts of five distinct physiographic provinces: the Appalachian Plateau, the Valley and Ridge, the Blue Ridge, the Piedmont, and the Coastal Plain.
The form of the landscape and the climate of the area influenced the development of vegetation and animal life in each of these provinces. Although Georgia is the largest U.S. state east of the Mississippi River', it covers only about 300 miles from north to south, providing a small range in which biological diversity may occur. With elevations ranging from sea level to more than 4,700 feet and a diverse geological base with many different soil types, however, the ecology of Georgia is widely varied.
