2020 Map of Jerusalem

About this map

The Satilla River carves a winding path through this corner of Camden County, defining the settlement patterns of towns like Jerusalem and Midriver. The landscape is dominated by extensive wetlands and riverine features, including Monfort Island and the swampy reaches of Tower Swamp. Numerous bluffs along the water, such as Clarks Bluff, Long Bluff, and Bullhead Bluff, provided high ground for early development and river access. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the locations of family and community landmarks like Baileys Mill Cem, Tompkins Cem, and Manning Cem. The road network, including the Old Jefferson Hwy and Burnt Fort Rd, connects small riverfront communities like Jefferson and Hazlehurst, reflecting a legacy of coastal Georgia's rural river-based economy.
