1943 Map of Ocean Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The Francis Marion National Forest dominates this coastal South Carolina landscape, recorded in detail during World War II. The map reveals a transition from the marshy lowlands of Ocean Bay and Wambaw Swamp to the emerging infrastructure of Awendaw and Fort Corner. A distinctive network of historical transport is visible through several remnants of the Old Railroad Grade, tracing a path through the dense forest and over water bodies like Turkey Creek and Huitt Branch.
