1955 Map of Port Wentworth

About this map

The Savannah River corridor north of Savannah is defined by a dense network of tidal waterways and marshlands, including Onslow Island and Argyle Island. In the mid-1950s, this area serves as a critical industrial and transportation hub, where the Seaboard Air Line and Atlantic Coast Line railroads converge near the growing town of Port Wentworth. The landscape transitions from the river's Front River and Back River channels to the inland forests where several small communities and family-named churches, such as Houston Ch and Richmond Ch, sit along the Old Augusta Road.
