About this map

The Fort Stewart Military Reservation dominates this landscape, spanning the boundary between Bryan and Liberty counties. This coastal plain region is defined by the winding course of the Canoochee River and a dense network of water features, including Savage Creek and Mount Hope Creek. Numerous Artesian Wells are scattered across the terrain, reflecting the area's specific hydrological characteristics during the mid-20th century.

Settlement is concentrated along the southern edge, particularly around the community of Fleming, which serves as a junction for the Seaboard Coast Line railroad and several roads. Local history and genealogy are anchored by landmarks such as the Mt Olivet Ch, the Dixie Daniel Sch, and family-named burial grounds like Briggs Cem and Bragg Cem. The presence of the Tidewater Experimental Station near the southern border indicates the agricultural research interests of the era.
