1945 Map of Hilton Head

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

Hilton Head Island appears here as a quiet maritime landscape just after the war, years before its modern development as a resort destination. The northern end of the island is dotted with community landmarks that serve as vital records for genealogists, including First Africian Ch, St James Ch, and Queen Chapel Ch. These rural congregations, along with Oak Grove Ch, are positioned along a simple network of roads and trails that traverse the maritime forest and marshes.
