2024 Map of Hoboken West

About this map

The Satilla River meanders across the border of Brantley and Pierce counties, defining a landscape of low-lying swamp and bluffs. This section of southeast Georgia is characterized by the tight river bends of Dark Hole Reach and Blue Hole Reach, flanked by elevations like Higans Bluff and Yellow Bluff. The mapping captures the rural residential patterns of Schlatterville and Hoboken, where local life is oriented around a network of family-named roads and remote burial grounds. Genealogists can trace sites such as Enon Cem and Thrift Cem, while the southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the waters of Laura S Walker Lake and the dense Raulerson Swamp. The convergence of Mill Creek, Big Creek, and South Prong Big Creek underscores the complex hydrology that has historically shaped settlement in these pine-studded wetlands.
