About this map

The Savannah River forms the winding boundary between South Carolina and Georgia, anchoring a landscape defined by extensive wetlands and historic river crossings. Small communities and landmarks like Millett, Averill, and Hattieville are situated along the terrace above the floodplain, connected by a network of rural roads such as Brigham Landing Rd and Stony Bluff Rd. The presence of the Stoney Bluff Ferry and the Rock Fence Crossroads indicates the enduring importance of river-access points and local junctions in this agrarian region.

Genealogists and local historians can trace spiritual and family centers through several established sites, including Saint Marys Church, Corinth Church, and the Saint Marys Baptist Church with its associated Church Graveyard. The geography is further characterized by numerous named water bodies and depressions such as Mobley Swamp, Oliver Swamp, and Telfair Bay, which illustrate the complex drainage patterns of the coastal plain.
