1962 Map of Fair Bluff
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Fair Bluff anchors the landscape where the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad crosses the Lumber River, marking a historic node of commerce along the North Carolina and South Carolina border. The terrain is defined by a complex network of wetlands, including the expansive Ashpole Swamp and Gapway Swamp, which hem in the elevated settlements of Marietta and Causey. These swampy lowlands are dotted with curiously named depressions and water bodies like Deadman Lakes, Sawscalpel Bay, and Devils Elbow, suggesting a landscape where navigation was historically dictated by the winding river and narrow ridges.
