1974 Map of Georgetown
USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Winyah Bay serves as a central maritime hub for the coastal Lowcountry, where the Pee Dee River, Black River, and Waccamaw River converge at Georgetown. This 1970s survey illustrates a landscape of extensive wetlands and riverine networks, including the Santee Swamp and Hellhole Bay within the Francis Marion National Forest. The transition from river-based transit to mid-century coastal development is evident in the alignment of the Intracoastal Waterway and the expansion of vacation communities like Myrtle Beach and Ocean Isle Beach.
