About this map

The city of Kingsland serves as the focal point of this 2017 survey, showcasing the modern layout of this Camden County hub near the Florida border. The landscape is defined by the winding waters of the Saint Marys River, which marks the state line, and the intricate drainage of Crooked River and its various tributaries like Little Catfish Creek and May Branch. The transition from established residential blocks to the wetlands of Shingle Swamp and Caney Swamp illustrates the coastal geography of the Georgia lowcountry.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the numerous burial sites identified throughout the area, including Zion Cem, Sheffield Cem, and Evergreen Cem. Smaller settlements such as Kinlaw and Seals appear alongside family-named landmarks like Griffin Bluff and Wrights Island. The map meticulously tracks the infrastructure connecting these communities, from major highways to local routes like Harrietts Bluff Rd and Colerain Rd, providing a comprehensive look at the modern footprint of this historically significant river borderland.
