1943 Map of Fort Moultrie

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Moultrieville and the historic fortifications at Fort Moultrie anchor this coastal survey, which highlights the strategic and recreational landscape of the South Carolina shore during the Second World War. The map details the intricate network of waterways including Hamlin Sound and the Intercoastal Waterway, separating the mainland from barrier features like Sullivans Island and the Isle of Palms. The interior reveals a rural community structure defined by distance-named institutions such as Fourmile Sch and Sevenmile Sch along the Georgetown Road. Local history is preserved in labels for Atlanticville P O (Fort Capron) and the coastal settlement at Porchers Bluff. The map also identifies significant military footprints beyond the forts, including a U S Rifle Range north of Mt Pleasant, reflecting the era's wartime activity near the Wando River.
