2015 Map of Kings Ferry

About this map

The Saint Marys River winds through this coastal borderland, serving as the natural boundary between Camden County, Georgia, and Nassau County, Florida. This 2015 survey illustrates a landscape defined by its waterways and small, historic landings such as Kings Ferry and Clarks Bluff. The river's serpentine path is marked by distinctive features like Cabbage Bend and Merrles Bluff, while the surrounding lowlands are drained by Cabbage Creek and Horsepen Creek. Settlement patterns are concentrated along the northern banks, notably within Kingsland and the smaller community of Silco. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of numerous local burial sites, including Brickyard Cemetery, Oak Hill Cemetery, and Haddock Cemetery. The map also captures the local road network that connects these rural points, from the winding Silco Road to the straight passage of the Manning Hunt Road near the northern border.
