1982 Map of Jason
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
Nahunta Swamp and its complex network of tributaries like Beaver Dam Branch and Cow Swamp define the low-lying landscape along the boundary of Wayne and Greene counties. This 1970s-era survey reveals a rural society centered on dispersed agricultural hubs and crossroads communities such as Shine, Oakdale, and Peanut Crossroads. The mapping reflects a deeply rooted community infrastructure, documented through numerous country churches like Eden Ch and St Johns Ch, and many unnamed family cemeteries. The presence of Parkstown and Jason in the south, alongside features like the Slough Dam and a Sandpit, points to a landscape balancing traditional farming with local extractive industry and water management in the Coastal Plain.
