About this map

Kingsland sits at the heart of this coastal Georgia corridor, where established neighborhoods like Woodhaven and Forest Ridge meet the intricate marshlands and tributaries of the Atlantic coast. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Crooked River to the north and the Saint Marys River along the southern boundary, creating a network of tidal branches such as Catfish Creek and May Branch. This survey illustrates the modern residential expansion of the area, featuring numerous named developments including Terra Haute, The Lakes, and Catfish Acres.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of several burial grounds, including Zion Cemetery, Sheffield Cemetery, and the Carlton Cemetery near Griffin Bluff. The map also traces the critical transport infrastructure connecting these communities, from the Crooked Bay Bridge to the Kingsland Post Office. Landmarks like Floyd Hammock and Wrights Island highlight the unique terrain of the Georgia-Florida borderlands just before the turn of the decade.
