1943 Map of Ocean Bay

About this map

The Francis Marion National Forest dominates this Lowcountry landscape, where dense swamp networks and historic timber transport routes define the terrain. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade cutting through the center of the sheet reflects the era's logging infrastructure, linking the high ground of Ocean Bay to the watery basins of Wambaw Swamp. Small community focal points are scattered along the margins, including the Halfway Creek Sch and the Ocean Grove Ch near the southeastern boundary.
