1958 Map of Meldrim SE

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Ogeechee River and its intricate network of drainage canals define this 1958 landscape on the edge of Savannah. The map documents a transition from the agricultural heritage of the Hopeton Plantation and the historic Savannah Canal and Ogeechee Canal to the mid-century expansion of Bloomingdale and Pooler. Significant portions of the western terrain are occupied by the Fort Stewart Military Reservation, while the Central of Georgia and Seaboard Air Line railroads provide the primary industrial corridors through the low-lying swamplands. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific landmarks, including the Brickyard Cem, the U.S. Dept of Agriculture Plant Introduction Garden, and several rural churches like South Newington Ch and Saint John Ch that anchored these local communities before suburban growth intensified.
