1943 Map of Carvers Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Black River defines the southwestern edge of this 1943 landscape, winding through a network of wetlands and landings that historically supported the regional timber and agricultural economy. The Roland Hall Plantation stands near the riverbank, a vestige of the area's older land-use patterns, while the nearby Dunbar Landing and Post Foot Landing indicate the ongoing importance of river access. Much of the northern interior is dominated by the U S Army Reservation, which encompasses the broad, swampy expanse of Carvers Bay and Machine Bay. Settlements like Annieville, Allentown, and Dunbar are scattered along the primary roads, often centered around community landmarks such as Hopewell Ch and St Marys Ch. This survey, produced during the war years, documents a period when the rural backcountry of Georgetown County balanced traditional river-oriented life with modern military land use.
