1950 Map of Jones Bay

About this map

Hobucken anchors the northern reaches of this coastal landscape, situated where the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the lowlands near Goose Creek. This mid-century survey reveals a shoreline defined by intricate maritime geography, from the marshes of Gum Swamp to the expansive waters of Jones Bay. An Abandoned Tramway provides a tangible link to former timber or industrial activity, tracing a path south of Goose Creek State Game Land. Along the fragmented coast, family and descriptive landmarks like Bills Creek Landing, Persimmon Tree Point, and Deadman Point indicate the localized nature of navigation and settlement. The map captures the area before significant modern development, showing the complex system of creeks like Gale Creek and Chadwick Creek that served as the primary arteries for this water-dependent community.
