1971 Map of Douglas South

About this map

The southern outskirts of Douglas expand into the coastal plain in this early 1970s survey, anchored by institutional landmarks like South Georgia College and the Douglas Municipal Airport. The landscape is a transition from the structured street grid of the city to the meandering swampy corridors of the Satilla River and Seventeen Mile River. A network of country churches and family-named burial grounds, including Wayfarer Ch, Franklin Ch, and McClelland Cem, provides a detailed record for genealogists tracing families in the southern portion of Coffee and Atkinson counties.
