About this map

Georgetown sits at the confluence of the Sampit River and the Winyah Bay, serving as a focal point for a landscape defined by its historic rice culture and coastal infrastructure. The map documents numerous Abandoned Rice Fields along the riverbanks, illustrating the transition of the South Carolina Lowcountry from its plantation-era economy toward a mid-century military and industrial posture. Notable landmarks like the Georgetown Naval Airport (Under Construction) and the Sampit River Bridge indicate significant development during the 1940s.
