2017 Map of Claxton

About this map

The Canoochee River winds through this coastal plain landscape, defining the boundaries and drainage of a region centered on the historic settlements of Claxton, Hagan, and Bellville. This 2017 survey details the agricultural and industrial character of Evans County, where the Claxton Sewage Treatment Pond and Claxton-Evans County Airport mark modern infrastructure alongside deep-rooted family landmarks. For genealogists, the map provides a dense record of local interments, including the Parker Place Cem, Hodges Cem, and Sikes Chapel Cem. Numerous named water bodies like Strickland Lake, Warnock and Barrow Pond, and Yarbrough Pond reveal a landscape heavily managed for irrigation and recreation. The proximity of Undine and the boundary between Evans and Tattnall counties show the persistence of traditional rural communities connected by a network of established county roads.
