The Savannah River defines the border between Georgia and South Carolina in this reconnaissance survey, revealing a landscape where river transport and early rail networks intersect. This era shows the decline of historic river crossings, marked by the noted Becks Ferry (Abandoned) and Sisters Ferry. The South Carolina side features the riverfront settlement of Purrysburg and the rail hub at Hardeeville, while the Georgia interior includes Rincon along the Seaboard Line.
