1961 Map of Brunswick

About this map

The Georgia coastline and its deep tidal marshes define this 1961 U.S. Geological Survey sheet, centered on the historic port of Brunswick. The intricate network of sounds and islands, from Wassaw Island in the north to Jekyll Island in the south, reveals the complex geography of the Lowcountry. Significant federal and state holdings are prominent, including the sprawling Fort Stewart Military Reservation and the Georgia State Prison Farm. Inland, the landscape is a patchwork of swamps and river systems like the Altamaha River and Buffalo Swamp, which historically dictated the placement of settlements and transport routes.
