1955 Map of Fort Pulaski

About this map

Fort Pulaski National Monument stands as the central landmark of this coastal survey, occupying Cockspur Island at the mouth of the Savannah River. The map captures a complex maritime landscape of salt marshes and tidal waterways where South Carolina and Georgia meet, defined by engineered passages like Fields Cut and Walls Cut. On Daufuskie Island, the presence of Union Ch, Mary Field Sch, and Mary Field Cem provides a detailed look at the established community life on these sea islands during the mid-20th century.
