1979 Map of Brunswick West

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Buffalo River and Turtle River dominate this coastal landscape west of Brunswick, where intricate tidal networks define the boundaries of Colonels Island and Blythe Island State Park. This orthophoto-topographic study captures the industrial and natural geography of Glynn County in the late 1970s, illustrating the heavy footprint of dredging and land management near Andrews Island and several Industrial Waste Ponds. The rail corridor of the Seaboard Coast Line cuts through the northern marshlands, connecting at Southern Junction near local landmarks like the Water Tank and Sewage Disposal Pond. Local history and genealogy interest is concentrated in the small communities and rural congregations such as Galilee Ch, Springhill Ch, and Dahlke Chapel that border the sprawling marshes of Buffalo Swamp.
