About this map

The Savannah River defines the border between Georgia and South Carolina, anchoring a landscape of river landings and lowland swamps. On the Georgia side, the settlement of Stillwell and the historic Ebenezer Ch stand near the riverbanks, while the South Carolina side features numerous named landings like Sisters Ferry Landing and Gatneys Landing. The river itself is characterized by intricate meanders and named points such as Chair Maker Point and Bowl Maker Point, reflecting a history of local navigation and river-based commerce. Inland from the water, the terrain rises into the Sand Hills, where landmarks like the Green Swamp Hunting Lodge and Beech Hill suggest the area's use for timber and recreation. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of the Union Spring Cem and Strohbar Cem, alongside small rural communities like Haddonville and Keiffer.
