1948 Map of Johns Island

About this map

The tidal landscape of the Ashley River and Stono River dominates this mid-century survey of the South Carolina coast. The map illustrates a transitional era where the deep history of the Lowcountry — represented by Drayton Hall, Ashley Hall, and various Old Fort sites — exists alongside active industrial and transport corridors. The Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard Air Line railroads cut through the marshy terrain, connecting small settlements like Red Top and Nosbig.
