1962 Map of Genoa

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The settlement at Genoa and the surrounding pine-turpentine landscape define this 1962 survey of Hamilton County. Several "stills" — including Camps Still, Blacks Still, and Purvis Still — are scattered across the terrain, indicating the historical naval stores industry that once dominated this region. The landscape is heavily marked by wetlands and named bays, such as Bee Haven Bay, Cheshire Bay, and Altmans Bay, while the Southern railroad line cuts through the southwest, providing a transportation corridor near Jerry Branch. Local social and family history is anchored by rural landmarks like Friendship Church, Spring Branch Church, and the Barton Cemetery. In the northern section, the Christie Lookout Tower stands near Christie Tower Road, overseeing the expansive Swift Creek Swamp and the intersection of local logging or access routes like Eightmile Still Road and Sugar Ridge Road.
