1950 Map of Pinetown

About this map

Pinetown serves as a central hub in this mid-century coastal plain survey, situated where the Norfolk Southern railroad crosses the dark waters of Acre Swamp. The landscape is defined by the expansive Pungo Swamp and Bath creek systems, reflecting a rural economy tied to timber and tide. Small rural communities like Terra Ceia and Gaylord are connected by a network of bridges and crossings, including Acre Bridge and Hunters Bridge.
